County Attorney delays action on mandamus in Linn County

Linn County Attorney William Faches will not file mandamus against chairman Dudley Henderson before determining if the board can legally appoint an administrative intern. Democrats Scolaro and Linstrom had urged action if McGarvey’s one year internship at 560 dollars monthly is valid, while Henderson questions legality and seeks an official opinion. If the contract is deemed legal and Henderson still withholds signature, mandamus will proceed. He plans to sign if legal.
