John Regan has resigned from his position as CAO/Clerk for the Municipality of Merrickville-Wolford. The resignation has been in effect since May 21.
Regan has been on paid administrative leave since January. Interim CAO/Clerk/Treasurer Arie Hoogenboom has been assisting the municipality on a part-time basis since mid-February.
Council has directed Hoogenboom to start looking for a new CAO/Clerk with a view of making a one-year appointment. This move will see the municipality through until the next council is in place, following the municipal election in October.
The 2019-2022 Council can then have input into the permanent staffing arrangements.
Hoogenboom will be leaving his interim post at the end of this month.
