Sanilac County appoints two to Veterans Affairs Committee after ballot vote
Summary
The board conducted nominations and a ballot vote for five Veterans Affairs Committee candidates, appointing Jeffrey Lyle and Mark Teal; vote tallies were read aloud and appointments confirmed.
The Sanilac County Board of Commissioners appointed Jeffrey Lyle and Mark Teal to the county Veterans Affairs Committee following a ballot vote on Nov. 5, 2024.
The board entered five nominees into nomination and the clerk read the ballot tally: "Andrew Uniak, 0 votes; Justin Faber, 2; Michael Hare, 1; Jeffrey Lyle, 5; and Mark Teal, 4." After the count the chair said, "Jeffrey Lyle and Mark Teal, congratulations. You are appointed to the Veterans Affairs Committee." (Speaker: Chair)
Candidates interviewed earlier described veterans outreach and service experience. Andrew Bueniec (introduced by the chair) summarized 23 years at the Department of Veterans Affairs and said he has worked as a patient advocate to improve access and transportation for veterans. Michael Hare and Jeffrey Lyle each described prior service on veterans boards; Mark Teal outlined Navy service and local civic participation.
The board did not debate the appointments at length; the clerk’s ballot count produced the final result and the chair announced the appointments. The new committee members' terms and first meeting dates were not specified in the record.
