Governor appoints new St. Clair Commissioner

Gov. Robert Bentley has  appointed noted Pell City businessman Tommy Bowers to the St. Clair county Commission.  Bowers is a former Alabama Power Company business office manager and current chairman of the St. Clair County Economic Development Council.

 Bowers applied one week after Paul Manning defeated incumbent Stan Batemon for the St. Clair County Commission chairmanship. Manning serves as the District 3 representative on the St. Clair County Commission. Bowers will fill Manning’s spot on the commission when Manning officially becomes chairman of the commission in November.
