Edwards Named to MACo Board of Directors

Garrett County Commissioner Paul Edwards was recently installed as a 2023 member of the Maryland Association of Counties (MACo) Board of Directors by Lieutenant Governor Boyd Rutherford.

Edwards is beginning his first one-year term on the MACo Board.

“I am pleased to serve on the MACo Board of Directors. The policy-update and relationship-building work that MACo performs is integral for Garrett County’s connections and collaborations on the statewide legislative front,” said Commissioner Edwards.

The MACo Board of Directors is made up of 16 county elected officials. These county leaders are selected by the MACo membership to serve the interests of the Association, oversee its management and strategic direction, and maintain and develop relationships with other parties with whom MACo and counties regularly interact. The Board works collaboratively with the MACo Legislative Committee, which sets policy positions for the Association and directs its legislative advocacy priorities.
