Town board member Chad Mize announces resignation; residents voice concerns about Post Office and marshal residency
Summary
Chad Mize announced his resignation from the Town of Dana board during the Oct. 14 meeting; public comment raised concerns about a Post Office tear-down project and that the Town Marshal does not live within town limits.
Chad Mize announced his resignation from the Town of Dana board during the Oct. 14, 2025 meeting. The minutes record the announcement but do not include an effective date or a formal acceptance motion.
Board members present at the time of the announcement were Bob Richardson (President), Marti Kritzer (Parks), Kyle Marshall (Sewage) and Michelle Doan (Clerk/Treasurer). The minutes do not record any discussion about vacancy procedures, replacement timelines or whether the resignation creates a temporary quorum issue.
During the public-comment portion of the meeting, attendees discussed the planned tear-down of the Post Office and expressed concern that the Town Marshal does not reside within town limits. The minutes record these comments but provide no detailed account, supporting documents or follow-up actions.
The board adjourned at 8:42 p.m.; the minutes indicate the Clerk/Treasurer will handle routine follow-up tasks such as publishing the minutes and other administrative steps. The minutes do not record any vote related to the resignation or any formal next step regarding the Post Office matter or the marshal's residency.
Next procedural steps that would typically follow a resignation — such as formal vacancy posting, appointment process, or special election — are not documented in the minutes and would require inquiry with town staff for confirmation.
