Ensures strong voices from the east side of the County are muffled; Board rejects considering request from McCasland to be third member on the Selection Committee

The West County Voting-Bloc ensured that strong voices from the East side of the County would be muffled or little heard, if at all, when the 17 member Search Committee is assembled. This was accomplished in two ways: First, West County Voting-Block leader Pat McCarver will gather the potential nominees to the Committee.  She will then be joined by Connie Harris to help select the final membership.  McCarver’s long experience on the Governing Board will easily overshadow any suggestion that Harris, a novice, may make that McCarver does not agree with.  

Second, a suggestion from Deb McCasland that she or  another Board member be added to the Selection Committee was not seriously considered. Therefore, the power is retained by McCarver.
