School Committee Chair Leah Guay to resign; town to add School Committee election to Sept. 14 referendum
Summary
Chair Leah Guay announced she will tender her resignation for family reasons and asked that the Town of Chebeague add a School Committee election to the special referendum on Sept. 14, 2021. The committee recorded the announcement and took no further formal action at the July 20 meeting.
Leah Guay, chair of the Chebeague Island School Committee, announced at the July 20 meeting that she will tender her resignation citing family obligations and requested that the Town of Chebeague include an election for a School Committee seat on the special referendum ballot scheduled for Sept. 14, 2021.
The announcement came during the committee’s regular meeting, which was called to order at 6:03 p.m. No motion related to the resignation was made at that meeting; Guay stated the town should add the School Committee election to the referendum rather than hold a separate election.
The committee’s regular business proceeded after the announcement, including unanimous approval of the meeting agenda and prior minutes. The next formal step for replacing the chair will depend on town election procedures and whether the town places the School Committee contest on the Sept. 14 referendum ballot.
