Board president reappointed
Long-time Supervisor, Harry Sanders, will once again assume the role of President of the Lowndes County Board of Supervisors.
Sanders resigned from the position earlier this month for what he calls "a lack of support".
The board voted three to two to re-appoint Sanders to the position.
Sanders has represented District One for ten year and has served as President of the Board since 2004.
Both Leroy Brooks and Jeff Smith voted AGAINST Sanders.
The Board is expected to meet again on Monday.
