Commissioners agreed to MSU Extension services

St. Joseph County’s Board of Commissioners agreed to extension services provided by Michigan State University for 2015.
Reached during Tuesday’s commission meeting, the agreement calls for the funding of one full-time extension educator and two part-time 4-H program coordinators.
The services will cost the county more than $118,000.
In an unrelated matter, Three Rivers resident Lee Zimmerman was appointed to the St. Joseph County Solid Waste Planning Committee. The term expires in September 2016.
