News brief: BoE chair resigns

Posted on October 2, 2008 by Staff

Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools Board of Education Chair Pam Hemminger will submit her resignation from the board at a meeting tonight (Thursday) in order to serve on the Orange County Board of Commissioners.

Hemminger filed to run for one of two seats representing District One on the Orange County Board of Commissioners. Only two candidates, Hemminger and former board of education member and current County Commissioner Valerie Foushee, filed for those two seats. Their names will appear on the Nov. 4 ballot as uncontested candidates for these seats. Hemminger’s resignation will become effective Dec. 1, when she will be sworn in as a county commissioner.

The school board will vote on a process for filling Hemminger’s vacant seat at tonight’s meeting. If the proposed process is adopted, a new board member would be appointed at the Nov. 20 meeting and would be sworn in at the Dec. 4 meeting.
