(KNZA)--The Doniphan County Commission has organized for 2021.
That came Monday after two new commissioners took their seats on the Commission.
New 2nd District Commissioner Wayne Grable and new 3rd District Commissioner Bobby Hall were among county officials sworn in by District Judge Jim Patton.
Hall defeated Jerry McKernan in the August primary election and Grable replaces Tad Gieger, who didn't seek re-election.
Grable was appointed as commission chairman for 2021.
In other business, the Commission voted 2-1 to extend the countywide mask mandate until February 22. Grable cast the lone dissenting vote.
It has been in place since November 24 to help mitigate the spread of the coronavirus.
