Anglyn appointed Henry commissioner

Dee Anglyn was named Feb. 15 to succeed Greg Cannon on the Henry County Board of Commissioners, filling a term that expires at the end of this year.

Anglyn was appointed by board chair Carlotta Harrell after the other commissioners failed to make a motion to approve either of the Henry County Republican Party’s two nominees: Anglyn and Vicki Consiglio.

Legislation passed a year ago gave Harrell the authority to make that move just before Cannon was appointed to succeed Gary Barham, who died in office.
