During a special virtual meeting Tuesday, Commissioners interviewed a total of three candidates.
County documents had previously stated that there would be five interviews, but two candidates had withdrawn their applications, leaving the decision between applicants Thom Miller, Monteze Morales and Tammy Taylor.
A candidate would need six votes to pass, and Morales made out with a total of seven after being nominated.
Morales, a Democrat, says she has been a resident of Kalamazoo County for almost 40 years. She currently works for Kalamazoo Valley Community College as a program manager for Kalamazoo Promise services.
She also works for the Public Housing Commission as Vice Chair. She cited her experience with this and other boards, such as OutFront Kalamazoo, as qualifiers for the position.
