Four people have been picked by Senate President Pro Tempore Greg Treat to serve on various state agencies, boards and commissions.
Treat says as the new leader of the Oklahoma Senate, he’ll emphasize and prioritize the appointment process.
“The appointment process is one of the important duties of the Senate leader because agencies, boards, and commissions have a lot of input and oversight over issues like education, health care, and public safety,” Treat said. “It’s important we attract qualified, energetic, experienced people to serve our state. If you are interested in helping us move Oklahoma toward a better and brighter future, please contact my office to let us know about your interest and willingness to serve.”
The list of appointments include:
Brett Coble of Ardmore to the Long Term Care Services and Supports Advisory Committee for a term serving at the pleasure of the Senate president pro tempore. Coble is serving in a new position as a member who represents for-profit nursing homes.
Sheryl Lovelady of Oklahoma City to the Board on Judicial Compensation for a term serving at the pleasure of the Senate president pro tempore. Lovelady is serving as a member who represents a civic organization and replaces William Hubbard, who resigned.
