(Deming) – The Luna County commissioners Thursday unanimously appointed Luna County Sheriff’s Captain Kelly Gannaway as the new sheriff.
Gannaway, who had been the department’s second-in-command, will fulfill the remaining two years of Sheriff John Mooradian’s four-year term. Mooradian passed away January 5th following a lengthy battle with cancer.
The commissioners also voted to create the Luna County Community and Economic Development Advisory Committee to serve the Deming-Luna County Economic Development Corporation. The move eliminates the Luna County Community and Economic Development department, and brings the city and county programs together again.
In other action, the commissioners elected Linda Smrkovsky chair for 2017 and appointed John Sweetser to be the commission’s representative to the Central Arizona Project Entity.
