Madison County Administrator's Resignation: Timing is Everything.

Makes you wonder if the ongoing audit has anything to do with it, huh? Houston is the man in charge of making sure the county books are in order with respect to roadwork and, considering he just took the job three months ago, it seems like a hasty retreat. It was Houston who sent out an email to the Board of Supervisors before the State Auditor's Audit Response Team moved in to "review" some subcontracts, giving the Board Pres and his buddy Warnock a chance to get their press releases ready.

Houston resigns as County Administrator

Madison County Administrator Mark Houston will resign at the end of the month to take a job in the private sector.

Houston offered his resignation to the Board of Supervisors Monday with members saying they were unsure when or if they would name a permanent replacement for Houston.

He called the position one of the most rewarding experiences of his life, but said the opportunity to work in the private sector was to good to pass up.

Houston was named County Administrator in January after former County Administrator Donnie Caughman retired.
