After many years of service to the Town as a member of the Select Board, Planning Commission, and other committees, as well as serving the town as State Representative, Patty O’Donnell is taking a well-deserved rest and has resigned from her town offices. Many thanks to Patty for all her work on behalf of Vernon! The Planning Commission is seeking a volunteer to replace her, and interested persons should send an email to Chris Parker, Chair of the Select Board (selectboard-e@vernonvt.org), stating their interest and describing their qualifications. Please copy Bob Spencer, chair of the Planning Commission, at spencebbc@aol.com.
