While the Door County Board saw changes in its leadership structure earlier this month, Kewaunee County residents will see familiar faces lead their meetings. Earlier this month, Supervisor Dave Englebert was elected from a field of five that were nominated for Door County Board Chairperson. Englebert replaced Dave Lienau, who, after a decade on the board, opted not to run for office again. One of those nominated supervisors, Todd Thayse, was elected as the board vice-chair. On Tuesday, Dan Olson was re-elected as Kewaunee County Board Chairperson, and Gerald Paape was elected as his vice-chair. Shortly after he was re-elected, Olson thanked the board for their support.
Both counties have big projects ahead of them, with Door County looking to improve its communications system and Kewaunee County still weighing options for its jail and main highway shop. The following Door County Board meeting is May 28th, and the next Kewaunee County Board meeting is May 21st.
