By Caleb Bedillion Daily Journal TUPELO – In an effort to stem financial losses, the Lee County Board of Supervisors voted Monday to eliminate all staff positions at the Lee County Agri-Center. Three jobs in total were cut, including the fulltime director Torrey Mitchell, who was hired in 2013. Two hourly employees, one of whom served as an event coordinator, were also cut. Supervisors unanimously backed these decisions.
