Martha Richards, this is her first year in term. "Though new to this position I am excited at the opportunity to make a difference for many of our County's citizens by acquainting them with County government and what it can do for them . Helping those without a voice is important to me - we must be proactive with preventive and rehabilitative programs to keep our young people safe, crime-free, and positive members in their communities. Appropriate funding must be available to run County programs, support the employees, maintain the large County complex and plan for future needs all in a fiscally-sound, responsive and responsible manner." said Martha
