EDWARDSVILLE – The Madison County Board rejected one appointment and declined to act on several others at Wednesday’s board meeting.
The reappointment of David Schwind to Madison County Flood Prevention for a new three-year term failed on an 11-17 vote.
The appointments of Donald Sawicki to the Flood Prevention Board, Cedric Irby to replace Ron Jedda on the Madison County Transit District Board, and Nick Mason to replace Nathan Kincade on the Wood River Drainage & Levee District, died for lack of a motion.
Those three appointments had been tabled from last month’s meeting over complaints by several board members that a new county administrator and IT director had not been appointed. Those positions were filled during a special meeting last week.
