Board reappoints regional representative, fills EMS slot and approves meeting-schedule amendment
Summary
The board reappointed Greg Gates to a regional behavioral health board, approved Chief Andrew Meeks for EMS Region council position 2, and adopted an ordinance amendment formalizing the commission’s regular meeting schedule.
Commissioners approved several administrative items: reappointment of Greg Gates as the county’s Region 6 behavioral health representative (three‑year term), appointment of Chief Andrew Meeks to fill an unexpired EMS Regional Council slot terminating 06/30/2027, and passage of Ordinance Amendment 2026‑01 to correct and formally establish the board’s regular meeting schedule as the 2nd Monday and 4th Tuesday of each month (SEG 248–262, SEG 268–277, SEG 515–532).
Staff explained the ordinance amendment corrects an internal scheduling inconsistency and allows the board to reschedule meetings when a regular meeting date falls on a legal holiday or other unforeseen circumstance in accordance with Georgia law. The board approved the motions by voice vote and authorized the chair to sign documents as appropriate.
