Commissioners approve Board of Health and RAC appointments, change 2026 meeting start time to 5 p.m.

County staff reported recommended reappointments to the Greene County Board of Health: Dr. Whit Bartholomew (dentist) and Lehi Conway (engineer or engineer-designee). An unidentified commissioner moved to approve the two appointees and the motion carried by voice vote.

The board also approved recommended appointments to the Regional Aging Advisory Committee including David Jones, following staff recommendation and a motion carried by voice vote.

Commissioners debated adjusting the regular meeting start time for 2026. Staff proposed keeping the first- and third-Monday pattern but shifting many meetings from 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Several commissioners said a 5:00 p.m. start could increase attendance by county employees and other residents; a motion to adopt the schedule with the 5:00 p.m. start was approved (one commissioner recorded a nay on the record for that motion).

No dollar amounts, ordinance changes or contested roll-call votes were recorded in the transcript for these agenda items. Staff flagged that changes to convenience-site or landfill schedules may require ordinance review before implementation.
