Board approves sale of iPad to commissioner BY REGGIE PONDER Editor The Chowan County Board of Commissioners voted Monday to allow outgoing Commissioner Alex Kehayes to buy the county-owned iPad he has used during his ser vice on the board. The board approved the sale under the "pri vate sale" provision in state law for disposing of county property. Kehayes did not seek reelection and will be leaving the board next month. The District 2 seat he has represented since 2012 will be filled by fellow Republican Patti Kersey beginning in December. The board approv ed a sale price of $50 for the iPad. The county bought iPads for all county com missioners in 2015 at a cost of $47H each. Ke hayes at that time opted for an upgrade, which he paid for himself at a cost of $399. As required by state law the county is adver tising the terms of the sale for a period of 10 days. Kehayes was recused from the vote in order to avoid any ethical issues with the sale. In another matter, the board voted unanimous ly to appoint William M. Smith to the Chowan County Nursing Home Advisory Board. The board also voted unanimously to adver tise a number of vacan cies on local boards. Among the upcoming va cancies are three seats on the Chowan Plan ning Board and three on the Chowan County Tourism Development Authority. County staff also plans to contact those who are currently serv ing to see if they are in terested in continuing to serve.
