DEPARTMENT: Town Clerk
CONTACT INFORMATION: Cathy Dorando, 919-918-7309
INFORMATION: The Stormwater Advisory Commission currently has three vacant seats.
Applications from Gordon Chadwick and Satya Kallepalli have been on file since the June 2021 Stormwater Advisory Board appointments. At that time, Chadwick and Kallepalli were not selected for appointment and the Town Clerk was directed to bring back an amendment to create additional seats on the Board. On September 14, 2021 the Town Council adopted an ordinance adding two seats to the Commission. Margot Lester, an appointee from June 2021, has also recently resigned. Chadwick and Kallepalli were contacted and only Chadwick is still interested in being appointed to the Stormwater Advisory Commission. This appointment would leave two seats vacant.
Jeanette O’Connor is the chair of the Stormwater Advisory Commission and provided the chair form for the Council’s review. Chair forms are located directly in front of the application.
