Kurt Prenzler

County Board Chairman Kurt Prenzler said people should have the freedom to choose whether to wear a mask.

One day before the vote, Democrats and Republicans on the board heavily criticized the plan.

The plan would cut the number of seats on the Madison County board from 29 to 25.

A redistricting map proposed by the County Board Chairman would cut the number of members of the county board from 29 to 25.

The Board approved the appointment of three county board members Friday night.

Board members say Chairman Kurt Prenzler continuously attempted to “go around” the board with appointees and surprise last-minute votes.

Kristen Poshard alleges she was fired after complaining about repeated sexual harassment from a county board member.
