Madison County Board does not move forward with advisory referendum on cutting board size A presented resolution to ask voters whether to reduce the County Board from 29 members after the 2020 census did not receive a motion and therefore was not placed on the April 6, 2021 ballot; board members debated procedure and whether to draft a plan instead. The board recessed to Jan. 20, 2021.
