A Fond du Lac County committee is recommending a replacement to fill a vacancy on the Fond du Lac County Board. The county committee on committees is recommending the board appoint town of Taycheeda resident John Rickert to fill the seat vacated when Brenda Schneider was elected county treasurer. Committee member and county board chairman Marty Farrell says all of the six applicants were impressive. Farrell says Rickert stands out in part because of his municipal government experience. The county board is expected to approve the appointment at their meeting Tuesday evening.
