Two Douglas County residents are up for state commission appointments.

On Monday, Governor Kate Brown submitted a list of state board and commission appointments to the Oregon Senate for confirmation. Alicia McCauley has been selected for a 4-year term on the Government Ethics Commission. Susie Steward is Brown’s choice for a partial 4-year term on the Board of Directors of the Oregon Health and Science University. If confirmed, both would begin their terms on November 19th.

The Senate Rules Committee is scheduled to consider the nominations next month. Nearly 50 people are being considered for confirmation.
