Loren Corbin - former Town Supervisor..by unanimous vote of the Town Board: Abrams, Walker, Head, and Mayne (who dropped out of the race so he could stay a Board member....).
It was a full house with 20+...the meeting started with a brief introduction by each of the candidates. The Board then went into an executive session (in Salka's office)...after about 40 minutes they returned with DeWitt nominating Loren Corbin and approved by the full board....Despite Salka's attempts to put Chuck Blood in the position. No public comment was allowed. The position will be held until the next general election in NOVEMBER.
Granted, there was dissent as stated by Rachel Owens (former Board member), however the sentiment of the Board as well as several citizens is: NOW maybe we can get things done. Salka left a high level of frustration - a catalog of loose ends....unending litigation...and a whole host of Salka's "I'll look into that". (the black hole of follow up!)...he can now continue to play his old game in the Assembly...and help his friends...like the IDA Courthouse deal. See Nov 3 post.
