The Anderson County Operations Committee on Monday will consider proposals from County Mayor Terry Frank to sit with County Commission and participate in meetings.

Frank has said she wants to serve as chair of the County Commission, and she’s asked to be considered as a candidate in September 2016. In an October 14 letter, Frank also asked commissioners to sit with them during meetings.

If she were commission chair, Frank said, she would have to surrender her veto power. She would have a non-voting position, but she would be able to cast a vote to break a tie. See previous story here.

The Anderson County Operations Committee meeting starts at 6 p.m. Monday, November 9, in Room 312 of the Anderson County Courthouse in Clinton.

Also on tonight’s agenda are:

  • an overview of budgeting laws;
  • assigning Room 312 to the court system, with County Commission meetings moved to another location;
  • discussing the operations of Anderson County Emergency Medical Services; and
  • considering a proposal to establish a procedure to transfer specified delinquent tax properties.

More information will be added as it becomes available.
