Biddeford Council Faces Resignation Plea Over Ward Violations
Jacques Millette asks Biddeford to seek resignations of Mayor Lucien Dutremble and councilors Michael Bergeron and William Zuke. He argues Ward 1 has three councilors while Ward 1 has too few, violating the city charter and oath of office. He also alleges zoning and residency issues and notes Zuke has served in absentia while in Arizona. Bergeron disputes residency and says he may not seek re election. Dutremble offers no comment on the charges.
