In a last-minute move, Western Elmore County Recreation District President Marsha Sellers tenured her resignation during a public hearing Jan. 25.

Sellers, who was sworn in to start her first official term with the district's board of directors just one year prior, stepped down from the agency due to recent medical issues.

You might not of liked Marsha or her politics but someone having heath issues isn't something to be joyful over.

I don't like anything about the WERCD and the tax but I won't say somone's having a serious heath issue is "Good News". That is just cold hearted thinking.

One down...two more to go. Never said anything about her (Marsha's) health problems being "good news"...neither did BK. You assumed. The WECRD Board is corrupt---the only hope for the WECRD to ever get beyond what it is is to have a reasonable board...which is not what this is. 12 years and NOTHING!

Now they will appoint someone of like mind (or lack of it) to the post (like they normally do) and continue down the same do very little path. Yeah to more taxes for nada. A fortune in taxes collected each year and all the recreation that is provided is 15K and only for the youth. Per the statute, it is to be recreation for all---not a select group. But I guess we can say that after all of this time, they are at least doing something. Praise to the Recreation Gods for that.
