County Board chair did not usurp the County Executive's appointment power by appointing persons to fill vacancies in the office of County Treasurer and 4 seats on the County Board. Election Code governs appointments to vacancies in elected offices and gives that power to the County Board chair.(CAVANAGH and STEIGMANN, concurring.)
