Franks seeks to rework how county works
State Rep. Jack Franks’ goal to change the way the County Board chairman is elected may shift to changing the board’s very power structure.
Franks’ supporters have been passing petitions to put a referendum on the Nov. 6 ballot to change the County Board to an executive form of government.
If approved, voters still would elect their board representatives by district, but also elect an executive at large to run the county’s day-to-day operations.
