Attendance policy should be top priority
The first order of business for the new Lee County Board should be the establishment of an attendance policy. No member should be allowed to miss meetings for several consecutive years and not be removed.
The Lee County Board will soon enter a brave new world as a trimmed-down governmental body. The board has 28 members now. When its new term begins in December, it will have 24.
We believe last year’s decision to reduce the board’s size was sound.
We encourage the board to make a collateral decision: Enact an attendance policy.
