The Barrow County Board of Commissioners at a called meeting Tuesday afternoon publicly reprimanded Chairman Danny Yearwood.

On a 4-2 vote, the board passed a resolution censuring the chairman for divulging in a Jan. 13 statement to the media some confidential information about ongoing legal matters.

The resolution also included a threat to take further action if Yearwood were to continue such actions.

Voting against the measure were commissioners Larry Joe Wilburn and Eva Elder, who were the only board members who commented on the measure before the vote.

Yearwood directed the meeting but did not comment on the resolution or on his Jan. 13 statement.
