The board of the Henry County Water Authority announced a historic development which took place at its first meeting of 2021, with all three officers’ roles filled by black women.

The board elected Cletonya LaGrand-Stidom as chair. She has served on the board for two years. Two newly-appointed board members fill out the slate of officers, with Sandra Rozier elected vice chair and Siddiqa Gibson as secretary-treasurer. Rounding out the board are Jimmy Carter and Warren Holder, both of whom have served for one or more full terms.

This year marks the 60th anniversary of the creation of the Henry County Water Authority.
