Nelson County commissioners discuss asking voters to make States Attorney an appointed post
Summary
Commissioners discussed drafting a resolution to place on the November ballot a measure asking voters to change the Nelson County States Attorney from an elected to an appointed position and directed the auditor to prepare the resolution.
Nelson County commissioners on July 2 discussed drafting a resolution to ask voters whether the County States Attorney should be chosen by appointment rather than election.
The commission held the discussion during its regular meeting; the record shows a directive for Auditor Nathan Parks to draft a resolution to present to the board. The transcript does not record a motion or a vote on the change during this session.
The item would, if placed on the ballot and approved, alter how the county fills the county prosecutor position but the commission did not set language, a timeline beyond the November General Election, or an implementation process during the meeting. Auditor Nathan Parks will prepare the draft resolution for the commission to consider at a future meeting.
