The announcement was made following a one hour, 18 minute executive session to start Monday’s select board meeting. Chairwoman Tina Brooks announced the resignation and said the board would be hiring an interim town manager.
His resignation letter was not read at the meeting and the board did not vote on whether on not to accept the resignation.
In his letter, Andrews said his resignation was effective immediately and he stated that he wished the town and its citizens the best of luck. However, in the letter he expressed his frustration with the Select Board and the tremendous amount of extra work that was required to run the town.
