A ‘NEW’ COMMISSION — New Bowman City Commissioners Ryan Shear, left, and Myron Vail, right, being sworn into office June 28 after receiving the highest votes in the June 14 primary election. Commissioner Mike Sondeland retired from the board and did not run for re-election while Commissioner Chuck Whitney waged an unsuccessful campaign to oust current board president Lyn James and ultimately lost his own seat on the commission. Commissioner Darren Limesand replaces Sondeland as vice chairperson, Shear takes over Whitney’s spot as garbage and street commissioner and Vail was named the new water and sewer commissioner, which was previously Sondeland’s duty. The new commissioners also found spots on various boards vacated by Sondeland and Whitney. (Pioneer Photos by Bryce Martin)
