Rex Blair, 47, is replacing Amy Mudano, whose five-year term ended May 31. Blair is the regional operations director for DaVita, a kidney care company, overseeing more than 150 employees at 14 dialysis centers in the greater Birmingham area.
Hoover Board of Education member Amy Mudano said she definitely believes her votes in favor of requiring masks in Hoover schools at the beginning of the 2021-22 school year are what kept her from getting reappointed to the school board this year.
The five-year plan includes $25.1 million for a new elementary school, $4.5 million for an addition at Bluff Park Elementary and $14.3 million in previously unidentified projects.
