It was recently announced that the Bi-State Development Board of Commissioners will make a change to the Vice Chairman of the Board position. Commissioner Debra Moore from Illinois will replace Illinois Commissioner Terry Beach as Vice Chairman. Beach stepped down as Vice Chairman due to time constraints although he will continue to serve as a commissioner. This leadership change was approved by the Board of Commissioners at its regular meeting on November 15.
The Board of Commissioners approved officers for the 2024-2025 year at the June 21 Board Meeting. Missouri Commissioner Sam Gladney is the Board Chair. Illinois Commissioner Herbert Simmons is Treasurer, and Missouri Commissioner Andrea Jackson-Jennings is Secretary of the Board. The commissioners assumed their offices immediately following the June meeting.
