Editorial: Marin sheriff oversight commission selection process is promising

After years of debate, an oversight commission for the Marin County Sheriff’s Office appears to be off to a good start.

That start is the selection of the commission’s members. County supervisors have come up with a well-balanced composition for the new panel.

Its effectiveness will be tested by its broad membership of Marin residents who represent the varied segments, interests and concerns of our community.

The supervisors have done that in their selection of nine members.
