Authority Board Re-elects its Slate of Officers

During its January Meeting, the HCWA Board of Directors re-elected its slate of officers to serve another term, which includes all female African Americans in each of the three leadership positions for another year. 

Cletonya LaGrand, who represents Henry County’s District 2, will serve a second year as HCWA Chair, and she will be joined by Sandra Rozier, representing District 4, who is the first female African American to serve as Vice Chair, and Siddiqa Gibson, representing District 5, a female African American who will serve as Secretary/Treasurer.

“I’m humbled and honored to be selected to Chair the Board of this outstanding Authority, and I hope we’ll build upon the accomplishments of previous Boards who have provided such outstanding leadership,” said LaGrand, upon her election as HCWA Chair.

Rounding out the remaining members of the six-member HCWA Board of Directors are: Jimmy Carter, representing District 3, Warren Holder, representing District 1, and Fred Mays, who is a Member-At-Large. 

HCWA Board Members are appointed by their respective Henry County Commissioners. The HCWA Board typically meets on the second Thursday of the month at 8:30 a.m. at Authority Headquarters, unless otherwise noted. The schedule for Board Meetings, Board Member profiles, and Board activities are provided via this Board Members link.
