CHAIR'S REMARKS
Thank you to Board Members for taking the time from your very busy schedule to attend this Special Call Meeting today. One of the things, when Bill Durkin was stepping down, he requested we move quickly to fill his seat on County Board. We do statutorily have 60 days to fill a seat. Bill served on this Board for many, many years and wanted as little time as possible without representation on this Board. I appreciate your making time today to be here and it means a lot to Bill as well.
