The Prince George County Board of Supervisors elected Floyd Brown as chair and Ms. Womack as vice chair, adopted the board's 2025 bylaws and meeting schedule, and approved a slate of one-year appointments to regional and local committees during the board's organizational meeting.
The actions set board leadership for 2025 and designated the county's representatives to several regional bodies, including the Crater Planning District Commission and the Metropolitan Planning Commission.
Floyd Brown was nominated and received unanimous support from the board; the roll call showeda unanimous vote in favor of Brown for chair. After the vote Brown, identified in the meeting as the board's newly elected chair, thanked colleagues and said, "I would also like to say thank you to all of my fellow board members, for electing me as your chair for the year of 2025. There's a lot of things we're gonna have to work on, a lot of things we're gonna need to discuss this year, and we will work our way through them together." Ms. Womack, elected vice chair, told the board, "I would like to thank everyone who voted for me and I will do my best to fill the position. And I hope you will cooperate and we can have a good year because we've got many months to go together." Both quotes are from the meeting record.
