Tony Rand, who announced last week that he was stepping down from the NC Senate to become Chairman of the state’s Parole Board played a large part in reshaping the board to its current configuration.

In 2005, Rand introduced S 897 which changed the makeup of the parole board from three full-time members to one full-time chairman and two part-time associates and ended the term of the current board, requiring new members to be appointed.

The bill passed the Senate unanimously on April 13, 2005 and was later incorporated into the 2005 budget bill to be signed into law.

I guess the question becomes, is this just a coincidence or did Rand have this all planned out years ago?
