The Henderson County Board of Commissioners re-elected Michael Edney as chairman and Grady Hawkins as vice chair Monday night, keeping the same lineup of leaders for the next year.

There was no discussion and no other nominees for the top two spots. Hawkins, a retired Air Force colonel, is in his fourth term on the board. Edney, an attorney who is up for re-election in 2018, is also in his fourth term.
