Marshall County Planning Commission elects new president, confirms committees and counsel

The Marshall County Planning Commission reorganized leadership and committee assignments on Jan. 22, electing Deborah Johnson as president and confirming existing committee rosters and legal counsel.

During roll call and nominations, Deborah Johnson indicated she volunteered to serve as president; a motion to elect her carried by voice vote. Commissioners nominated Stan for vice president and affirmed Craig (identified in the record as Craig Kultheis) to remain as secretary. The commission also voted to retain board counsel Derek Jonas.

The Technical Review Committee (TRC) membership was confirmed as Terry Barnhart, Deborah Johnson, Craig Kultheis and Brianna Sonager; the commission approved keeping that membership unless someone asked to change. Commissioners also voted to continue the ordinance subcommittee (previously focused on battery rulemaking) and add Jeff Gustafson to the subcommittee list for future ordinance work on solar and data‑center rules.

Clerical items included approval of prior meeting minutes from Nov. 25 and routine confirmations of committee assignments. The meeting adjourned at approximately 7:06 p.m.
