Lemmie nominated as PUCO chair

Former Dayton City Manager Valerie Lemmie is among four nominees recommended to Gov. John Kasich to lead the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio.

Lemmie was first appointed to the PUCO in 2006 to a five-year term.

Also nominated for the chairman post: Jack Michael Biddison, a gas field developer and former PUCO member; Columbus area attorney Andre Porter; and state Rep. Todd Snitchler, R-Uniontown.

Kasich has two appointments to make to the PUCO, which regulates utilities in Ohio.

The PUCO nominating council recommended the three who are not appointed chairman, plus former PUCO commissioner William Newcomb, be considered for the second slot.

Kasich may pick from the list supplied by the nominating committee or ask for a new list.

PUCO commissioners are paid a range between $73,715 and $157,955.
