Simply download the workbook and read his resignation letter. He explains why.

There have been many who have served on various boards and committees that have not been Middletown residents. Mike McKoy comes to mind on the Golf committee a while back. He resides in Greycliff out on 122 past Fenwick. If you check the addresses on some of the boards, you find that there are some listed that are outside the city, or were the last time I checked them.

Wolf resigned after 26 years because he had other opportunities offered to him such as political advising and some of those opportunities may have a conflict of interest with the city, or so the letter states. He still will be the asst manager of the airport.

I have known Mr.Wolf since Roosevelt Jr.High, and have served with him on various boards and committees. He has been a very involved and valuable public servant. He has become an important voice for the citizen and businessman, and he will be seriously missed(especially on the Planning Commission).
