Washington County reorganized all of the offices that were up for election in November. At the top of the list were the swearing in ceremonies for Commissioner. Republicans Nick Sherman and Electra Janis took their chairs as majority members. Democrat Larry Maggi will begin his sixth term as commissioner in the minority. Second term commissioner Sherman says that he will be making sure that the County 9-1-1 emergency response system is studied. He stated that two consulting agencies have been hired and both found glaring issues with the proposed system. His goal is to make sure the system is the best available for emergency responders. Maggi begins his sixth term and is looking to keep civility and cohesiveness in the board of commissioners while keeping control of spending. Janis, who is beginning her first term as a commissioner says that she would like to enhance economic development. She pointed to the successes of Canonsburg and Washington in their efforts to open shops and restaurants. She would like to see the same success brought to other towns, especially in the Monongahela Valley. County Row Offices also were sworn in. Coroner Tim Warco, District Attorney Jason Walsh, Prothonotary Laura Hough, Register of Wills James Roman and Treasurer Tom Flickinger were all sworn in as incumbents. Clerk of Courts Ray Phillips will begin his first term.
