I presume it was more in reference to the position he'd fill, IE they need to find a new nominee for that position and will then eventually vote on it. There is a chance he un-removes himself too I suppose, we'll have to keep an eye on the matter to make sure they don't sneak him in later.

We need hunters to call out the hypocrisy and violation of statute of this appointment during the commission meeting. Beaulieu doesn’t meet the statutory requirements and was dishonest/deceptive during committee testimony.

Thanks for providing this. I’ll send respectful emails to all those that voted yes
Glad Tutchton's term is up in July - can't come quick enough.
