Former McLean County Board member Dave Selzer is again on the county board. He left several years ago for employment reasons, but moved back to town and when a vacancy happened in District 5, Selzer asked to fill the vacancy representing north and east Normal. He says he supports the direction the county is going in providing more mental health services.
Selzer says he hopes more public private partnerships can happen to address the mental health needs of the community.
He says there is one overriding issue in his district covering north and east Normal, the property tax base and the Mitsubishi plant closure impact on them.
Selzer says mentoring from other board members last time created one big difference between the David Selzer who joined the board eight years ago and the one joining now.
He replaces Sonny O'Connor, who has moved to Texas.
Selzer will also run for a full term on the board next year.
