Members also elected officers for the coming year, unanimously selecting Billy Cook to serve as chairman and Harry Meeks to be vice chair.The commission is charged with studying the capital improvement requests made by county departments, constitutional officers, outside agencies, and the public; determining a timeline for meeting those requests based on the funds available; and making recommendations to the Mathews County Board of Supervisors.
