May joins hospital board (11/15/04)
Former city council member named by commissioners
A registered pharmacist and former city council member is the newest member of the Jay County Hospital Board.
Stephanie May, who works for Ball Memorial Hospital operator Cardinal Health System in Muncie, was appointed to the board this morning by Jay County Commissioners.
May, who was beaten in a bid for re-election to the Portland City Council in 2003, was named as a replacement for Bill Davis. Davis vacated his seat on the hospital board when he won election Nov. 2 as District 33 State Representative.
The commissioners discussed several people who had expressed interest in serving on the hospital board. Commissioner Gary Theurer made the motion to appoint May, saying her background and experience made her well qualified.
May is the second woman on the seven-member board, joining Deb Kummer, Dr. David Fullenkamp, Randy Heston, Dean Jetter, John Nill and board president John Young.
The term of May’s spot on the board expires May 31, 2005.
Also this morning, Commissioner Mike Leonhard, Milo Miller Jr. and Theurer agreed to allow Jay County Sheriff Todd Penrod to obtain quotes for two 2005 patrol cars. The quotes will be opened at 1 p.m. on Monday, Dec. 6.
Penrod said he plans to trade-in two current patrol vehicles with more than 100,000 miles each.
The commissioners also agreed today they will not pay any additional money toward efforts of Blackford and Wells counties to prepare waste reduction plans for those counties’ respective solid waste districts.
Jay County, which pulled out of the former three-county Mideast Indiana Solid Waste District, had agreed to pay up to $15,000 to an Indianapolis law firm to prepare a new district plan for the MISWD. Before work could begin on that plan, Blackford and Wells counties had split to form their own single-county districts.
The last installment of the $15,000 amount was paid by Jay County in September of 2003, although the proposed plan for Blackford County has been rejected twice by the Indiana Department of Environmental Management.
A Blackford County Commissioner recently contacted Miller and said that attorney Brad Sugarman wanted additional money.
Miller called Blackford County Commissioner Fred Walker this morning. “We’re not going to pay any more money,” Miller told Walker.[[In-content Ad]]
