On Thursday, the Pittsylvania County Board of Supervisors held a reorganization meeting for 2024 and voted Darrell Dalton as Chairman and Robert Tucker as Vice-Chair. All seven members voted unanimously. Mr. Dalton served as Chairman last year, so his selection as Chairman was a reappointment by the other supervisors. New members of the board, who came in with the last year’s election, are Ken Bowman, Eddie Hite, and Murray Whittle. Dalton, Tucker, Vic Ingram, and Tim Dudley are incumbent members. All of them, but Dalton were re-elected last year by the voters in their districts. Dalton’s seat was not up for election.
There is a lot of excitement about this new board and optimism that they will be able to work well together.
I do not see a reason why not.
Congratulations are due for all of them for winning their seats last year – and for Dalton for having done a great job in 2023 as Chairman.
You can see a video of the reorganization meeting, with remarks made by some of the supervisors here.
After Dalton was re-elected as Chairman, he announced the follow committee assignments for 2024 (they seem to me to be fairly evenly distributed so that everyone has a role to play and no one is left out):
