Madison County Board chairman Kurt Prenzler has selected his successor as treasurer, according to a press release.
County board member Chris Slusser (R-Wood River) will be appointed Wednesday night to fill the seat left vacant by Prenzler after he was elected county board chairman. Candy Gilstrap was appointed as interim treasurer earlier this month until the position could be permanently filled.
Prenzler, who held the position of treasurer for the past six years, said he picked Slusser due to his financial and real estate background.
“I believe Chris has the integrity and background necessary to safeguard the taxpayer’s money,” Prenzler said. “I’ve known Chris the past 10 years, plus he has experience in county government.”
