Middletown seeks to bar burgess from voting on council actions
Middletown commissioners by a 3 to 2 vote moved to amend the charter to exclude Louise Snodgrass the town burgess from voting on all decisions except in ties. The vote follows months of debate with no stated reasons, despite opposing opinions from the town attorney and calls for a broader charter review. A public hearing is planned for next year alongside annexation petitions for 36.2 acres of low density residential development and referrals to planning and zoning for reviews and hearings in early next year.
