Commissioners make multiple board appointments and reappointments

During new business the board approved several appointments and reappointments to local boards and authorities. The board reappointed Commissioner Gordon Kelley as Commissioner Liaison to the Economic Development Corporation/Brownfield Redevelopment Authority for a three‑year term; Jack Shattuck moved the appointment and the motion carried by voice vote. Terry (Terence) Frewen was appointed to the Audit Committee (motion moved by David Hodges), and Kelley was appointed to the Local Development Finance Authority for a term expiring in 2027. Phil Hesche was appointed to the Commission on Aging for a three‑year term, and Mary Montgomery-Colvin was reappointed to the Area Agency on Aging of Western Michigan Advisory Council for a three‑year term.

The board deferred selection of a representative to the Area Agency on Aging Board of Directors to a later meeting. A representative to the Central Dispatch Board of Directors was appointed (minutes list the appointee as 'David Hidges' and record the motion as carried by voice vote); the minutes do not provide biographical details for appointees or start dates for terms.
