Largent will keep legislative role

While the county commissioners had previously discussed Michael Largent turning over attending Legislative Steering Committee meetings to another commissioner, and Art Swannack had said he’d be willing to take on the task, there will be no change in who is attending the meetings.

Largent was discouraged from lessening his involvement in the LSC, a sub-committee of the Washington State Association of Counties which lobbies and advocates for WSAC and does a lot of the background work during the legislative session.
