2026029 APPOINTMENT TO THE DUTCHESS COUNTY BOARD OF HEALTH
Dear Chairwoman Valdes Smith and Madam Clerk:
After careful consideration, I have decided to submit my resignation from the Board of
Health. Unfortunately, due to meetings beginning at 4pm on Thursdays, it has become challenging
for me to maintain regular attendance. I feel that the position would be better served by a Legislator
who has more flexibility in his/her schedule.
With that said, it has been an honor serve alongside a group of incredible professionals throughout
my time on the board. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
Regards,
DOUG MeHOUL
County Legislator ~ District 17
