Summary

The Goshen Board of Works accepted a firefighter/paramedic resignation effective May 8; the transcript lists two different employee names in places, an inconsistency noted in the record.

The Goshen Board of Works and Public Safety voted unanimously to accept the resignation of a longtime firefighter/paramedic effective May 8.

The board heard a statement praising the employee’s 20 years of service and the individual’s contributions as a firefighter, paramedic and mentor to department personnel. The board then moved to approve the resignation, and the motion passed unanimously.

The transcript includes inconsistent spellings of the employee’s name (the presentation refers to “Tim Christner,” while the formal motion names “Tim Lisonbee”). The board did not discuss or resolve that inconsistency on the record. The resignation was recorded as effective 05/08/2026.

The board did not take additional personnel action during the meeting; no discussion of replacement or interim staffing was recorded before adjournment.
