Mast is reappointed as county treasurer

The Holmes County Republican Central Committee met Monday, June 9 to consider an appointment to the vacancy created in the office of Holmes County treasurer by the resignation of Leslee Mast from that position.

The committee voted unanimously to reappoint Mast to complete the current term, which ends in August. Last November she was elected to a new term as county treasurer, which begins in August. The resignation and reappointment steps are required under current law to enable eligible members of the Ohio Public Employees Retirement System to claim their benefits.

The Republican Central Committee is composed of one member elected by Republican voters every four years from each of the 17 precincts in the county.
