Commissioner McCarty

September 11, 2008

On Wednesday, September 10, 2008, Commissioner McCarty was a guest speaker for the Government, Civics and History Day sponsored by Leadership Palm Beach County (LPBC).  LPBC is a program designed to identify and unite leaders from diverse backgrounds and perspectives in order to increase their understanding of countywide issues and improve their ability to lead effectively.  Commissioner McCarty addressed the group, which consisted of approximately 45 local professionals, on the responsibilities and decision-making process as an elected official.  At the same time, she provided valuable insight on the structure of the Board of County Commissioners and its relationship with county governmental operations and constitutional officers such as the Clerk and Comptroller, Sheriff, Supervisor of Elections and the Property Appraiser’s office.
