Waterford Select Board Appoints Ron Gray as Chair and Seeks Replacement for Resigned Member

WATERFORD — The Select Board met on Thursday following the unexpected resignation of Chair Sue Ann “Sukey” Watson. Ron Gray was appointed to replace her as chair with a 3-0 vote, though Gray abstained from voting. Gray was re-elected to a second one-year term on March 4. He previously served as chair for seven months after both the chair and vice chair resigned. The Select Board is currently seeking candidates to fill Watson’s vacant seat. Interested individuals should contact selectboard@waterfordvt.gov for more information.
