Jennifer Spellman, wife of District 5 Supervisor Darren Spellman, was appointed as the District 5 representative to the Calaveras County Library Commission. The position was previously held by Chairperson Sheila Neal.
Though an application had been submitted for the position by current Chairperson Sheila Neal, the BOS can defer to the Supervisor of the District in question when making the final appointment.
Darren Spellman clarified his reasoning behind the appointment being that he felt there "are things I would like have changed" with regards to the communication or lack of communication, hoping the appointment will help make the "library process known to me." He felt it was important to put a person in that position with "real working knowledge." Pointing out that his wife has a library media credential.
He hopes that the outgoing Chairperson Sheila Neal will be willing to continue to help.
When questioned if his wife would be able to attend the early morning meetings due to her employment in Manteca Darren responded, "We will have to see."
