Letter from Judge Harbison Regarding Pct. 2 Commissioner Appointment

December 6, 2024 - I am pleased to announce the appointment of Shannon Metcalf to finish the unexpired term of the late Commissioner Jimmy Lout.

Mr. Metcalf has been working for Precinct 2 for 29 years and was Commissioner Lout’s foreman for all 22 years of his tenure. I have faith in his ability to perform the duties of the office and I believe he will continue the legacy of Commissioner Lout. He has been assisting Commissioner Lout during his recent health issues with all aspects of the office including working with grants and budgets. Mr. Metcalf knows the citizens of Precinct 2 and I have had an overwhelming number of citizens from different communities support his appointment.

His Oath of Office will be administered at the next Commissioner's Court Meeting on Wednesday, December 11, 2024 at 9:30am in the 2nd Floor Commissioner’s Courtroom. Everyone is invited.
