Last week, Gossips reported that Claire Cousin has resigned as county supervisor for the First Ward. Her replacement will be appointed by the Common Council at the special meeting to be held on Friday, January 3, at 6:00 p.m. at City Hall.
As a resident of the First Ward, Gossips urges readers who are also First Ward residents to consider seriously if they might have the energy and commitment to take on this role or if they know someone with the qualities needed to represent the First Ward and fight our corner on the Columbia County Board of Supervisors.
Anyone interested should probably start by seeking the support and guidance of the First Ward councilmembers, Gary Purnhagen gary.purnhagen@cityofhudson.org and Margaret Morris margaret.morris@cityofhudson.org.
Update: At tonight's Common Council meeting, Margaret Morris, who as Majority Leader was sitting in for Council president Tom DePietro, explained that those interested in becoming supervisor for the First Ward should submit a letter of intent to DePietro councilpres@cityofhudson.org. Councilmember Rich Volo (Fourth Ward) suggested that these letters should be copied to all members of the Common Council, whose email addresses can be found here.
