A Pottawatomie County commissioner wants to alleviate any concerns citizens might have about the new board after expanding from three to five members and replacing all but one member of the previous commission.
Commission chair Terry Force on Monday acknowledged anxieties county employees might have with such a new makeup but said each commissioner brings “a diverse background” and has “a lot to offer.”
“Collectively, this will be an extremely good and effective board,” Force said. “I don’t know of anyone with an agenda. We just want Pottawatomie County to be the best place to live for tomorrow and years to come. We’re not here for heads to roll, just to make sure this county is run properly following the policies in place. If the policies don’t fit, we will look at them and adjust as necessary.”
