Newly appointed District 1 Gila County Supervisor Steve Christensen was elected vice chair of the board of supervisors Jan. 19.
Several years ago, the supervisors established a policy that each member would serve as chair for 16 months. District 2 Supervisor Woody Cline just completed his 16-month term and District 3 Supervisor Tim Humphrey was just appointed chair of the board. The late Tommie Martin, supervisor for District 1, was to have taken the chairmanship for the next 16 months, but with her death in December, the duty fell to Humphrey.
The supervisors also reviewed special committee and board assignments at the Jan. 19 meeting.
Cline agreed to step into Martinâs post on the County Supervisors Association Legislative Policy Committee. He will continue on the CORP Local Board for Sheriffâs Office Dispatchers; Gila County Board of Health; and the San Carlos Apache Tribe Partnership Steering Committee.
