Toole County board votes to hire Robin Skillman as county weed coordinator; two commissioners abstain
Summary
The Toole County Board of County Commissioners voted to hire Robin Skillman as the county weed coordinator following a brief hearing in which officials disclosed the candidate is related to a board member; two commissioners abstained and there was no public comment.
The Toole County Board of County Commissioners voted to hire Robin Skillman as the county weed coordinator during a brief, recorded meeting, the board said.
Board members told the hearing that two candidates applied for the position and were judged to be ‘‘equally qualified.’’ The board was unable to reach agreement on the first candidate and moved to offer the job to the second candidate, Robin Skillman. The hearing included a disclosure that the candidate is related to a member of the Board of County Commissioners; the transcript does not identify which commissioner is related to the candidate.
A commissioner moved to hire Skillman and another commissioner seconded the motion. Two commissioners announced they would abstain from the vote. The chair called the vote and declared the motion to have carried. The meeting record shows no further roll-call or individual vote tallies were read into the record.
There was no public present for the hearing and the board adjourned immediately after the vote.
Action taken: the board approved hiring Robin Skillman as Toole County weed coordinator; the record notes two abstentions and no public comment.
