Commission appoints Sharon Burch to Board of Adjustments; accepts resignation and hires Public Works staff
Summary
The commission appointed Sharon Burch to fill the unexpired term of Kenneth Utley on the Franklin Simpson Planning and Zoning Board of Adjustments, accepted a resignation from the public works department and approved hiring a replacement.
Mayor and commissioners announced that Kenneth Utley resigned from the Franklin Simpson Planning and Zoning Board of Adjustments for health reasons. The commission moved to appoint Sharon (Sherry) Burch to fill Utley's unexpired term, which the mayor said expires in December; the motion was seconded and carried unanimously by voice vote.
After an executive session, the commission returned to open session and accepted the resignation of Daniel King from the public works department and approved hiring Josh Gent for public works. Both personnel motions were moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.
Why it matters: The Board of Adjustments appointment fills a vacancy on an important quasi-judicial land-use board; the public-works personnel actions maintain department staffing.
Implementation: Sharon Burch will assume the unexpired Board of Adjustments term; human resources and public works staff will process the personnel changes and complete onboarding for the new hire.
