Etowah County Republicans to meet

The Etowah County Republican Executive Committee will meet at 5:30 p.m. March 9 in Room 210 at Gadsden State Community College's Joe Ford Building where they will consider candidates for the vacant District 2 County Commission seat. The seat was left vacant by Saturdays death of Commissioner Kenney Tidmore.

Party Chairman James Clay asked anyone interested in applying for the vacancy to attend the meeting.

He said candidates can bring their résumés and even can bring people to speak on their behalf.

At the end of the meeting, the committee will vote on a candidate to recommend to Gov. Robert Bentley, who will make the final appointment.
