Attempt to appoint former Planning Board chair fails on 3-2 roll call
Summary
After executive session on Feb. 9, the board considered Chad Kniskern for a Planning Board vacancy; the motion to appoint failed on a roll-call vote (2 yes, 3 no).
Following an executive session at the Feb. 9 meeting, the Town Board considered appointing Chad Kniskern to one of two Planning Board vacancies. Kniskern, who previously served on the Planning Board (including time as chair), said he was interested in serving again.
A motion to appoint Kniskern was moved by Councilman James Seresky and seconded by Supervisor Mark Fletcher. The board then took a roll-call vote: Councilwoman MaryAnn Nelson voted No; Councilman Seresky voted Yes; Councilman William Harlow voted No; Councilwoman Wendy Adams Rosa voted No; Supervisor Fletcher voted Yes. The tally (Yes 2, No 3) meant the motion failed and the vacancy remained open.
The board had convened the executive session specifically to discuss appointments and reconvened at 7:48 p.m. following closed deliberations. No subsequent appointment was recorded in the meeting minutes.
