ERWIN â Newly seated Erwin Mayor Glenn White has resigned from his seat on the Unicoi County Commission.
White, who was sworn into office as Erwin mayor in late November, announced his resignation from the 2nd District commission seat at Mondayâs meeting of the townâs Board of Mayor and Aldermen.
In a brief statement read early in Mondayâs meeting, White cited duties of his new office that he said demand more of his personal attention than the duties he was required to meet as one of nine county commissioners.
White said he gave his letter of resignation to County Mayor Garland âBubbaâ Evely last week and expected the commission to act swiftly to appoint someone to serve out the unexpired two years of his commission term.
