Motion to advance the top 5 candidates (31, 29, 24, 22, & 11) as provided by Doublehaul to interview: The Board approved the motion to advance the top five candidate as provided by Doublehaul.

While I would have preferred each commissioner to propose their preferred candidates, a consensus motion was necessary to streamline the process. The approved motion to advance Doublehaul’s top five candidates (31, 29, 24, 22, and 11) for interviews aligns with several of my preferred choices and effectively advances the selection process. I look forward to conducting in-depth interviews with these candidates.
