COUNTY BOARD SUPERVISORS NAMED TO COMMITTEES
April 29, 2020
County Board Chair Analiese Eicher, 608.571.6823
County Board
Remote meetings to continue into foreseeable future
The members of the 2020-2022 term of Dane County Board Supervisors were sworn in last Tuesday in a County Board meeting held remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Supervisor Analiese Eicher (District 3 – Sun Prairie) was elected County Board Chair, and has now named appointments to the County Board’s seven standing committees and four other committees of the County Board.
“Much of the work of the County Board is done by the standing committees, with the full Board acting on committee recommendations,” said Chair Eicher. “This is a talented group of new and returning Board members, and I am confident the work of each committee will reflect their priorities and dedication to the residents of Dane County in these challenging times.”
These committees will soon be holding their first meetings, which will be done remotely. Agendas and minutes for these meetings can be found at https://dane.legistar.com. Election of officers will take place at each of the committee’s first meetings.
“At this point, we need to continue to meet remotely to keep the public, staff, and County Board members safe during this public health crisis,” said Chair Eicher.
