Atchison Co Commission organizes for new year

(KAIR)--2025 officially came to an end for the Atchison County Commission this week, with their new year marked by the Commission organizing for 2026.

That followed initial business of the County at the front of Tuesday's meeting, with Commission Chair Casey Quinn calling for the Commission to formally put this past year to an end.

Once unanimous approval was gained, it was on to the new year, and a change of roles on the Commission:

It was Commissioner James Campbell who made the motion to keep Quinn in the role of leadership, supported by outgoing Commissioner Eric Noll and approved unanimously. Then, Quinn nominated Campbell for the vice-chair position, seconded by Noll, and approved unanimously.

Prior to Tuesday, Noll had served as vice-chair, but announced his resignation from the Commission, effective January 28, earlier this month. It was that detail that next led the Commission to keep its meeting schedule the same for 2026, with Quinn saying that option is best due to not yet knowing who will fill Noll's 1st District Commission seat, with the Commission able to change the schedule later, depending on the incoming commissioner's schedule.

The commission then moved on to other organizational matters for the new year, including banking decisions and placing individual commissioners on a variety of boards for local organizations.
