Forrence announces that he’s leaving the Town Council
By John T. Ryan
Peru Town Counselor Cortland Forrence surprised the few people remaining at the end of the March 23, 2009 Council meeting when he announced that he would be leaving the Council sometime this year. Forrence said, “I don’t have the time to keep up the schedule of meetings that are necessary to fill the position.” I haven’t turned in my resignation yet, but I will be sometime in the next maybe month or two before I leave.” Forrence said he had deliberated over the decision for a long time and that he just didn’t have the time or energy to continue on. He said he thought it would be best to find someone who has the time and energy to continue on. Forrence said it will be up to the Town Council to fill the position or to wait until the next election.
