WEATHERSFIELD Township trustees voted unanimously to withdraw Weathersfield’s contract with the Youngstown Warren Regional Chamber.
The reason for ending the relationship Tuesday came on the heels of former Niles City Councilman Ryan McNaughton being named the chamber’s vice president of governmental affairs.
Although none of the trustees named McNaughton, they referenced his new and former titles and his involvement with annexation legislation.
While two of the trustees were all for withdrawing, vice chairman Marvin McBride said he had reservations about the move.
During a trustees’ meeting, McBride said the board needed to look to the future and see how the decision would affect the township when they are gone. McBride said when dealing with an organization as powerful as the chamber, working with them is more beneficial than working against them.
