New County Board Chair Elected

New County Board Chair Elected

There’s a new person in charge of the Eau Claire County Board.

Supervisors last night elected Nancy Coffey as County Board Chair. She replaces Nick Smiar, who was voted out last week following the sheriff’s report into millions-of-dollars in overspending at the county’s Department of Human Services. Coffey represents the county’s District 10, which covers part of the town of Washington and some of the southern portion of Eau Claire. She did not say if she plans to continue pushing into the investigation at DHS, or if anyone else will be held accountable for the problems there.
