Boone County Appointed Local Government Boards

Some have expressed the opinion that too many persons serve on multiple Lebanon and Boone County appointed government boards. Because opinions representing more points of view would be considered when board decisions are made, it is believed that public service outcomes would be improved if fewer persons served on more than one board. In short, more valuable public input would be provided if no one person served on more than one appointed board.

Tabulated at the bottom of this page are the names of 68 Boone County citizens selected for appointment to 82 positions on 17 Lebanon and Boone County government boards as of December 5, 2012..

Elected officials are appointed to some of our local government boards because of Indiana Code requirements. However, one can certainly question why someone who is not an elected official should be appointed to serve on more than one local government board. Listed next are 12 of our Boone County neighbors who have been appointed to serve on two (or three) of our local government boards at the same time.
