Pike Road Planning Commission elects new chair and vice chair; mayor honors outgoing chairman
Summary
The Town of Pike Road Planning Commission on March 2 elected Commissioner Doug Fuhrman as chair and Pat Harris as vice chair after outgoing Chair Chris Dunn concluded his term; Mayor Stone publicly thanked Dunn and announced two mayoral appointments.
Doug Fuhrman was elected chairman of the Town of Pike Road Planning Commission at the commission’s March 2 meeting, succeeding Chris Dunn.
Chairman Chris Dunn called the meeting to order at 5:30 p.m. and later announced the conclusion of his term as chairman. Commissioners expressed appreciation for Dunn’s service; Mayor Stone presented Dunn with a children’s book purchased from Pike Road Elementary School’s library, "Someone Builds the Dream," and offered what the transcript described as a "huge thanks" for Dunn’s more than 20 years of service.
After Dunn nominated Commissioner Doug Fuhrman and Commissioner Ty Glassford seconded the nomination, the commission moved to close nominations and elected Fuhrman by unanimous vote. Chris Dunn formally transferred the gavel to Fuhrman, who presided for the remainder of the meeting. Fuhrman then opened nominations for vice chair, nominated Commissioner Pat Harris, and Harris was elected by unanimous vote.
In other leadership-related business, Mayor Stone announced two appointments: Bryan Shelton will fill the Mayor’s Appointed Commissioner position and Jon Briggs will fill the Mayor’s Staff Appointee position. Planning Director Keith Covington additionally noted that the planning department earlier that day hosted a workshop for 208 first-grade students from Pike Road Elementary School to learn about how to build a town.
The meeting adjourned at 6:16 p.m.
