The Warren County board voted to formalize leadership at the county jail by appointing Brian Typton as warden and Dan Peterson as deputy warden.
A member who identified experience working with Typton urged the board to confirm the appointments, saying Typton “hasn’t skipped a beat” and “has been doing a phenomenal job.” The board made a motion and seconded it; members indicated support by saying “I” and the chair announced the motion carried.
