Kelly Madigan, 巴尔的摩郡第一任监察主任, 从2026年1月2日起辞去她的角色, 成为霍华德郡第一任监察主任。 Kelly Madigan, Baltimore County’s first Inspector General, is leaving her role effective January 2, 2026, to become Howard County’s first Inspector General. 在她离开之前,与县行政主管Melissa Dickerson Klausmeier进行了有争议的再任命战斗,后者最初拒绝续任,导致县议会僵持。 Her departure follows a contentious reappointment battle with County Executive Melissa Dickerson Klausmeier, who initially rejected her renewal, prompting a county council standoff. 在受到公共和政治压力后,Klausmeier撤回了她的提名,允许Madigan继续作为拖延者。 After public and political pressure, Klausmeier withdrew her nominee, allowing Madigan to continue as a holdover. Madigan指出,在拖延期间缺乏工作保护是下岗的一个关键原因,强调需要在IG角色中规定固定任期。 Madigan cited lack of job protections during the holdover period as a key reason for stepping down, emphasizing the need for fixed terms in the IG role. 她现在将领导霍华德县新的监督办公室,而为未来的总检查员设立一个独立甄选小组的立法则朝着2026年的全民投票迈进。 She will now lead Howard County’s new oversight office, while legislation to create an independent selection panel for future inspectors general moves toward a 2026 voter referendum.
