Redistricting in Robertson County

I saw this article from the Clarksville Leaf-Chronicle about the status of Montgomery County’s re-districting status and process.
 

It looks as though a re-districting committee completed an evaluation, analysis and proposal as a proposal is moving forward to their county commission.

Where is Robertson County in the redistricting process?

In the past couple of weeks, a committee has been constituted. Members include:

Commissioners -

Bobby Jones (Chariman) – 10^th District

Carol Dugger (Secretary) – 5^th District

James Bowens  – 12^th District

Billy Vogle – 7^th District

Tommy Baggett – 9^th District

Ex-Officio / Non-Voting Members –

Cathy Hamsley, Administrator of Elections

Bob Hogue, Planning & Zoning

At our last Regular Commission Meeting, Chairman Bobby Jones gave a status report as to the committee’s progress.

The Committee has met with a representative of the Tennessee Comptroller of the Treasury’s office. An outline of objectives was presented to the Committee.

Chairman Jones advised that the Committee hopes to meet at least 2x a month until a proposal is formally submitted to the Robertson County Commission. Further, a proposal must be passed by year’s end.  

Comptroller's Report: Stolen County Money

Here is a disturbing report from Tom Humphrey from his Knoxville News blog.

More than $700,000 of taxpayer money was stolen from county governments across Tennessee during the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2010.
