Former Kane County State's Attorney Joe McMahon is the county's newest appointment to the Metra board of directors. The decision comes despite criticism from several county board members about the process, McMahon's qualifications and his tenure as state's attorney. The county board voted 19-4 Tuesday -- there is one vacant seat on the 24-member board -- to make the appointment.
McMahon was one of 18 applicants for the position, which comes with a $15,000 stipend.
 
A subcommittee overseeing and vetting the applications narrowed the pool to four finalists for interviews. Three of the four would have been worthy appointments, said county board member Drew Frasz. Frasz sat on the subcommittee along with county board members Vern Tepe and Mo Iqbal, and Carl Scheidel, the county's executive director of transportation.
