The Board will act on approving a five-year lease extension with the Cambridge Law Firm, for upper half of the County-owned building on south Poplar Street. And, the will consider and possibly act on the continuation of Zoom sessions for the Supervisor’s meetings in 2023. The Board began using Zoom as an option for in-person attendance, when COVID restrictions were set. They decided to continue the practice of using the interactive (Virtual)) feature last year, because many (including the media and those who have business with the County) found it to be very convenient.

Next up on their agenda, is the setting of 2023 County Holidays, and the appointment of Drew Williams as Victoria Township Clerk (effective 3/1/23). The Supervisors will also act on appointments for the Medical Examiner and Investigators:

  • 1st Deputy: Edna Becht, DO
  • Deputy: Angela Weppler, MD
  • Investigators:
    • Darcy Young, RN
    • Ronnie Ross, PM
    • Michelle Schroder, RN
    • Andrea Stork, RN

Once their regular meeting business concludes, the Board will move into a Work Session (Beginning at 10-a.m., or 15 minutes after the previous meeting is adjourned). During the Work Session, the Supervisors will discuss with Department Heads, the new Employee Handbook, and Health Insurance renewal.
