(KMZA)--The Nemaha Central Board of Education Monday evening tabled a decision until next month's meeting on the appointment of a someone to fill a vacant position on the board.

The board reviewed questionnaires completed by 3 of the 4 candidates who had expressed an interest in serving as a board member for district 1, which represents the west portion of the city of Seneca.

The three candidates include John Howard, Chad Baker and Amy Sudbeck.

The Board commented that all three are qualified for the position.

The position had been represented for many years by Gary Niehues, until he moved out of its boundaries.

No candidate filed to place their name on the ballot in last fall's general election, and it was declined by the winner of write-in voting.

The position will be up for election in November 2021.
