New County Board Form Would Reshape Lee County Government
Lee County voters will see a referendum on adopting a county board form of government in November. If approved, a sixth supervisor would be elected, a school board would be appointed by the supervisors, and powers shift from circuit court judges to the board, with an executive secretary to manage county affairs and budget. The plan broadens appointment authority, allows annual reports, and enables wage setting for most county employees.
