Under that pact, approved four years ago by the boards of both towns and further reinforced in 2020 by Lenox, Ketchen also served as Lee-Lenox Chief Administrative Officer, splitting his time between the communities.

Letters with the Lenox boardâs written decision are being sent to the chairman of the Lee Select Board and the town clerks of Lee and Lenox.
