MASSENA â Village trustees hope to appoint a new mayor during their February meeting after current Mayor Timmy J. Currier tendered his resignation Tuesday. The resignation is effective Feb. 1.
Deputy Mayor Matthew J. LeBire told trustees during Tuesdayâs meeting that village law dictates the actions they must take in the event of finding a replacement.
âIt appears that we need to appoint a new mayor sometime soon. The timeframe is not indicated. As of Feb. 1, we will not have a mayor. Fortunately, village law really dictates where we head from here. Given that we just got the official resignation today and itâs not effective until Feb. 1, I would respectfully request that we take some time to think about how weâre going to approach this,â he said.
