Quorum Court appoints two new members, reappoints three to Pope County 9‑1‑1 advisory board

The Pope County Quorum Court adopted a resolution appointing Randy Tankersley and Hayden Saffel to the county 9‑1‑1 advisory board and reappointing Brenda Smith, Tammy Dugan and Mark Morales. The resolution was presented and seconded during the August 2025 meeting and approved by roll-call vote.

Justice Sauer introduced the resolution and moved for approval. The court record shows the presenter reached out to mayors for input on new appointments and received a response from at least one mayor in favor; the transcript records "I reached out to all the mayors because typically we've not had any mayoral input. I had 1 mayor respond that they would like the appointment. And so that was, mayor Tankersley," as read into the record.

The clerk called the roll; members present voted yes and the resolution was adopted. The transcript does not include appointment letters, candidate biographies, or term lengths; those details were not provided in the meeting record.
