Planning board introduces new secretary; board thanks longtime member Arlene
Summary
The planning board introduced Kristen Savara as the new secretary and expressed thanks to longtime planning-board member Arlene, who will step down after many years of service.
The Grand Island Planning Board introduced Kristen Savara as its new secretary and thanked Arlene, a longtime board member, who is stepping down.
Kristen Savara told the board she currently works in the Niagara County Supreme Court clerk’s office and previously served as a town clerk for Grand Island; she said those records and minute-taking experiences were part of why she applied for the secretary role. "I currently work at Niagara County in Supreme Court," Savara said, noting her prior local experience with meeting minutes and stating she is prepared to take on the position. (Transcript quote paraphrased and attributed to Kristen Savara.)
Board members expressed appreciation for Arlene’s decades of service on local boards; members said Arlene joined zoning work in 1973 and later served on the planning and architectural review functions. The board presented thanks and best wishes as Arlene transitions off the board.
Members said the board will proceed with routine business under the incoming secretary and asked that new and returning members confirm availability for the coming year.
