Commissioners approve multiple appointments: revolving‑loan board, public‑health nurse, and fire‑district reappointments

Crawford County commissioners approved several appointments and reappointments during their Dec. 9 meeting.

Speaker 1 moved to appoint Jesse Belcher to the Crawford County Revolving Loan Fund Board to replace Speaker 1; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.

The health department requested approval to hire Tristan Leatherman as a registered public-health nurse. A motion to approve the hire was made and seconded; the appointment was approved by voice vote. The meeting transcript contains inconsistent name spellings — the county packet and one speaker used 'Tristan Leatherman' while another speaker called the hire 'Christian Leatherman' — which should be verified by county personnel records before publication.

Separately, the Leavenworth Fire Protection District recommended the reappointment of Gary D. Wiseman (representing Ohio Township) and Jeff LaHue (representing Leavenworth) to four-year terms. A motion to approve the reappointments was made and approved by voice vote.

These personnel actions were recorded as routine approvals; commissioners offered congratulations and gave brief administrative directions for paperwork and signatures.
