After 40 years in office, a Labette County commissioner has announced he will not run for re-election when his term is up. Commission Chairman Lonie Addis says he's made the announcement as early as he did to give plenty of time for anyone to decide to run as his replacement.
Addis was first elected in 1982 and is serving his 10th consecutive term. The remaining members of the commission, Cole Proehl and Terry Weidert, will have just three years of experience as commissioners making it the least experienced commission in the county since 1952.
