The appointment followed the resignation Sept. 5 of Patry, who cited personal and business obligations as requiring his time. The remaining board members were unable to appoint an interim member during the 30-day period to fill a board vacancy. By law, the task then went to the Probate Court, where applications from those interested in serving the interim term were requested.
“I believe that I am uniquely positioned to quickly acclimate and step into the vacancy created by Mr. Patry. I hope to provide the district the stability the board needs immediately to re-focus attention on issues facing the district through 2023,” she said Monday afternoon.
The appointment will end Dec. 31. Three new board members will be elected Nov. 7.
