Boswell introduced more than a few changes in Osborne’s administration. Besides Mary Lou Sullivan, who resigned after serving nearly 20 years in various capacities, Grainger Browne stepped down from ids positions as chair of public safety and council member effective at the beginning of the year. ‘1 wanted to give something back to the community when I started serving. But now I have some immediate matters that require my attention. I haven’t done anything compared to other members,” said Browne, in part of his farewell speech to borough council. Members accepted his resignation with regret. He was congratulated by council and presented with a certificate of appreciation. Richard KlixbuU was elected to fulfill the unexpired term. Klixbuli’s appointment leaves a vacancy on planning commission. “He was the obvious choice, bringing a lot of experience with him. It would be a conflict of interest for him to serve in both capacities,” said John Hayes, chair of finance Betsy Minr.o was elected to serve as choir of public safety in Browne’s place. Sallie Adams got added responsibility with her appointment as treasurer; she also is the borough’s tax collector. She will be undertaking the task of computerising and updating the borough’s financial records. A grant from the state gave Osborne the funds to make it possible. The treasurer acts as an independent contractor, receiving a monthly retainer. “She (Ms. Adams) is a very competent person and we are pleased she can help us. Shared services are an easy and desirable thing to do” explained Hayes. Laura Stone announced her resignation as borough solicitor. Her decision came as a result of more responsibility within the law firm, where she is employed. A motion to accept Harlan Stone was accepted by council. Acting as solicitor in leet, Aleppo and Crescent townships, Stone is experienced in public works matters that will take most of his time.
