The Labette County District One commissioner is ready for the shoes he has to fill of former Commissioner Lonie Addis. Commissioner-Elect Vince Schibi says Commissioner Addis will be hard to replace.

Schibi was one of six candidates in the primary before facing Democrat Mel Hass in the general election. Once Schibi filed to run in May he attended every commission meeting. He says he learned a lot in that time.

Schibi will officially take office in January where he will join District Two Commissioner Terry Weidert and District Three Commissioner Cole Proehl.
