Reception for former county commissioners Wednesday

A reception recognizing and honoring three outgoing Curry County Commissioners will be held Wednesday afternoon.

According to a news release from Curry County Manager Lance Pyle, guests of honor will be Chet Spear, Robert Sandoval and Tom Martin.

Spear did not seek another term as a county commissioner as he ran into term limits.

Sandoval did not choose to run for another term “for age and health reasons” he said.

Tom Martin ran for re-election as District 2 Commissioner but lost to Brad Bender, Republican.

Replacing Sandoval will be former Clovis City Commissioner Fidel Madrid, Democrat.

Replacing Spear in District 3 is Dusty Leatherwood, Republican.

The reception will be Wednesday (Jan. 4) from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. at 417 Gidding Street in the Commission Chambers.

This event is open for the public to attend. A quorum of County Commissioners will be present, but no public policy will be formulated, nor will any county business be conducted according to the news release.
