Board appoints Abby Wallin as Emmet County mental health advocate, approves intercounty 28E agreement
Summary
After a motion to appoint Sue Duhn died for lack of a second, the board appointed Abby Wallin as Emmet County's mental health advocate and approved a 28E agreement with O'Brien County to formalize the shared position; votes were 4–1 in both actions.
The Emmet County Board of Supervisors on June 24 considered appointments to the county mental health advocate position and approved an intercounty agreement to support the role.
Supervisor John Pluth moved to appoint Sue Duhn as mental health advocate but the motion died for lack of a second. Chair Lisa Hansen then moved to appoint Abby Wallin; Supervisor Todd Glasnapp seconded and the board approved the appointment 4–1, with Supervisor Pluth voting no.
Following the appointment, the board approved entering into a 28E agreement with O'Brien County that assigns the mental health advocate position responsibilities across counties; that motion passed with the same 4–1 vote split. The board did not provide further operational details during the meeting record.
The Auditor’s Office will carry the appointment and agreement documents in county files.
