Changes at Chatham Area Transit continued this week as the vice chair of the board, Clinton Edminster, was voted out during the board s monthly meeting. Edminster had served as vice chair for about nine months. He remains on the board as a member.
Chatham County Commissioner Helen Stone, who was nominated by Michael O Halloran, was selected to replace Edminster by a 6-3 vote.
Edminster has been an outspoken critic of the CAT board s handling of former CEO and executive director Bacarra Mauldin s termination earlier this year. He was one of three board members to vote against the firing and has called for her reinstatement.
