Toole County, Shelby officials approve appointments, dissolve city–county airport commission and create airport advisory board
Summary
At a brief meeting, the Shelby board approved minutes and two appointments, voted to dissolve a joint city–county airport commission and passed a resolution creating a Toole County Airport Advisory Board; the board directed staff to revise the advisory board bylaws.
The Shelby board approved routine minutes and several personnel and governance items, and passed two airport-related resolutions during a short public meeting.
The board approved the Oct. 20 meeting minutes after a motion by a commissioner and a second; no opposition was recorded. It then approved three personnel actions: appointing Jean Flesch to the Shelby Senior Center Board to fill the vacancy left by Rosalie Manley (term ending Dec. 31, 2027) and adding Lloyd Jackson as an additional elected official to help canvass city elections on Nov. 13. Both appointments were moved, seconded and approved without recorded opposition.
The board also passed Resolution 15-2025 to dissolve the existing city–county airport commission and Resolution 16-2025 to establish a Toole County Airport Advisory Board. After the motion to create the advisory board passed, the commissioner who made the motion said the board would "revise the bylaws" for the new advisory board and that staff would take steps to update bylaws as needed. Both resolutions were seconded and carried by voice vote in the record.

What it means The actions reorganize local airport governance by ending the existing joint commission and creating a county advisory board. The board directed that bylaws for the new advisory board be revised and updated; no details or timelines for those bylaw revisions were specified in the recorded discussion. The appointments advance senior-center governance and election canvassing capacity for the upcoming municipal election.
Next steps Staff will proceed with bylaw revisions for the newly created Toole County Airport Advisory Board; the transcript did not specify a deadline for that work. The meeting was adjourned with no further business recorded.
