Some Boone County Board members said they were caught off guard by their committee reassignments.
Officials learned their new committee appointments through an email sent by Chairman Bob Walberg on Thanksgiving Day. He said he typically sends emails out on Fridays but because of other commitments, he delivered the message a day early.
The chairmen of the finance, roads and capital improvements, administrative and legislative, and city-county coordinating committees changed through the appointments, effective Dec. 1.
Walberg said the reassignments were needed because of scheduling conflicts. He added that it helps to have fresh blood on committees and allow newer board members the chance to lead a committee.
County Board members called me, though, saying that they did not know the changes were happening until they received the email
