Yet Another Top Enfield Official Departing

Courtney Hendricson becomes the fourth high-level official to leave town since September.

Courtney Hendricson, assistant town manager in Enfield for the past two and a half years, will soon be leaving for a new venture.

On Monday, Hendricson submitted her resignation to acting Town Manager Lee Erdmann, effective Jan. 15. She will work through Jan. 11, and use the remaining four days as accrued vacation time.

In an email to Enfield Patch, Hendricson said, “I’m headed to CT Economic Resource Center (CERC) in Rocky Hill to become their new VP of Municipal Services - creating and implementing a municipal economic development program for CT towns and cities that don’t have one.”
