Commissioners reconstitute DUI task force and appoint Kelsey Jean Meyer coordinator
Summary
After a coordinator resigned, the board approved eight applicants to reestablish the DUI task force and appointed Kelsey Jean Meyer as coordinator based on the committee's recommendation.
Lincoln County commissioners voted to reappoint eight members to the county DUI task force following the resignation of long‑time coordinator Cindy Fuller, and they appointed Kelsey Jean Meyer as coordinator on the committee's recommendation.
Planning staff said the state recommended a formal application and approval process so that membership is set by the commission rather than ad hoc attendance; staff noted the task force provides training, education and funding for additional enforcement shifts. Candidates presented included law‑enforcement and victim‑services representatives: Sarah Long; Travis Miller (chief of police, Troy, absent); Chief Urkin (City of Libby); Katie Davis (treatment court coordinator, absent); Kelsey Jean Meyer (victim witness program); Andy Horton (Sergeant, Montana Highway Patrol); Mr. O'Neal (Lincoln County Attorney's Office); and Kathleen Sheffield (victim witness advocate, absent).
A commissioner moved to approve the eight applicants "as presented" and the board approved the appointments. The board then voted to appoint Kelsey Jean Meyer as coordinator on the committee's recommendation. Meyer thanked the board; commissioners asked that a coordinator contract be prepared for board review.
