At this year’s annual Strategic Planning Retreat, District 9 Commissioner Al Tillman was elected by his fellow Commissioners to be Mayor Pro Tem. He would take the place of District 5 Commissioner Bert Bivins, who had served in the role since December 31, 2013. Both were recognized at the Commission Meeting on February 6. Click here for video of that evening.
