Mayor appoints Jesse Layne to Norwood Board of Health

Norwood resident Jesse Layne has accepted Mayor Tom Williams’ appointment to fill an unexpired vacancy on the Norwood Health Board. In an October 17 letter to Jesse that appears on tonight’s City Council meeting agenda, Mayor Williams thanks him for accepting the appointment and “for all your dedication to this city, and I look forward to working with you.” Many of our readers will recall that Jesse retired from the Norwood Health Department in February, 2007 after over 10 years’ service as Health Inspector.

City Council must approve the appointment, which begins immediately and ends December 31, 2009. Mayor Williams states in the letter, “By copy of this letter, I am requesting that they approve your appointment.”
