McDowell Nears End of Long Randolph County Chairmanship
Ira McDowell likely presided for the last time as Randolph County Board of Commissioners chair last Wednesday night. The December 7 reorganizational meeting will seat new members. District Chief Judge Hal Hammer Walker will administer the oath in the afternoon due to a judge shortage. McDowell, serving 14 years, leaves a financially sound county government and a long record of fiscal oversight. The courthouse lights glow as clerk of court John Skeen prepares for the new court reform program taking effect in December, ending the old justice of the peace system and installing salaried magistrates. Names leaving and joining the magistrate roster reflect the transition, with questions about coverage for remote areas as the system shifts. Jordan seeks funds to unlock a $210,000 dam project in Randleman, delayed by a presidential freeze. Randolph School reports a $10,000 Head Start cut may affect next summer’s program, with federal funds at $40,956 and potential shifts to a 36-week fall program depending on Atlanta officials’ guidance.
