At Tuesday morning's Supervisor meeting, the Benton County Board of Supervisors moved to appoint a new Board of Health. Supervisor Rick Primmer read off the names for the appointments as the following: Lori Mott, Tai Burkhart, Carl Holmes, Jessica Fairbanks, and Mike Barnes.

Considering that the former Board of Health is still in the appeal process for their unceremoniously firing, it was suggested to the board that they table the appointments. The Board agreed to do so until they had obtained legal advice from the county attorney.

MA November 14, 2023, 3:35 pm Shouldn't they have done that before putting it on the agenda and recommending BOH members? The incompetence is truly breathtaking.
LV November 16, 2023, 11:13 am Was there a application for these positions or did the BOS seek these people out for the position?
