Queenstown appoints Lyndsey Ryan and firm Booth, Cropper & Marriner as town attorney
Summary
After outgoing Town Attorney Brynja Booth said this was her last meeting after nine years, President Willis moved to appoint Lyndsey Ryan and the firm Booth, Cropper and Marriner as the town attorney; the motion passed 3-aye, 0-nay.
Town Attorney Brynja Booth told the commission she had appeared in court for property-maintenance violations, reporting a property owner was fined (transcript text reads "fined $4-10") and given until April 8 to abate violations or the town could seek an abatement order. Booth then announced this would be her last meeting after nine years serving as the town attorney; commissioners thanked her for her service.
President Thomas B. Willis, Jr. moved to appoint Lyndsey Ryan and the firm Booth, Cropper and Marriner as the town attorney; Commissioner Hardee seconded the motion and it passed with a 3-0 vote. The commissioners publicly thanked Booth for nine years of service.
Why it matters: the change names the town’s legal counsel going forward and confirms local capacity to pursue property-maintenance enforcement if owners do not comply with court orders.
