Bladen County Commissioners meet Tuesday evening, 6:30 p.m. Could be the last meeting for longtime county manager Greg Martin, who will retire at the end of January. One task ahead for commissioners is naming of his replacement. No indication when or who. Numerous meetings likely as commissioners work through the process.
Martin appears to have been a very good county manager for Bladen County … We wish him well.
