Committee recommends Christy Droger for OCA advisory board private-sector seat
Summary
The committee asterisked Christy Droger as its recommended candidate for a private-sector vacancy on the Community Action Agency (OCA) advisory board and forwarded the slate to the Board of Commissioners; the vacancy term ends 07/27/2029.
The Appointment and Alignment Committee on July 28 recommended Christy Droger to fill a private-sector vacancy on the Community Action Agency (OCA) advisory board and forwarded the slate of nominees to the Board of Commissioners.
Committee members who attended the interviews described the two leading candidates as "very different" but both capable. One committee member said Droger's background in grant writing and business skills "could be helpful for OCA from [a] grant writing perspective and a business perspective." Another member praised Kelly Melton's interview record but ultimately the committee's nomination count produced the necessary majority for Droger, and the chair confirmed she had the requisite number of votes to be recommended.
The committee then voted to forward all names to the Board of Commissioners; the motion to advance the slate passed by roll-call as recorded in the transcript. The private-sector vacancy begins immediately and runs through July 27, 2029.
Note on transcript spelling: the transcript shows several variants of the nominee's surname (appearing as 'Droger', 'Drueger', and 'Druger'). The committee's selection is recorded using the form 'Droger' in several places in the transcript.
