WMFR commissioners take oaths

West Manatee Fire Rescue District administrative manager Julie Kichar swears Robert Bennett and Larry Jennis Nov. 17 into four-year terms on WMFR’s commission. Jennis was a commissioner who qualified to run for reelection without opposition. Bennett will serve his first term on the board after running away with the vote in November’s election. He succeeds former chair Randy Cooper. Islander Courtesy Photo: Ben Rigney
