A room full of people appeared at the Isanti County Board meeting April 7 to voice their opposition during a public hearing to a resolution which would change the County Auditor/Treasurer official from an elected official to an appointed official.Â
The resolution states the county board recognizes the benefit of having appointed persons in the position of County Auditor/Treasurer because it promotes efficiency and consistency of county business with individuals qualified to oversee a broad spectrum of complex issues with the Auditor/Treasurerâs office.
There were two written comments submitted from anonymous Isanti County residents who supported the resolution, stating it is important to have people with the proper experience and education in the position of Auditor/Treasurer.Â
