New Rochelle Library Seeking Trustee Replacement

NEW ROCHELLE, NY — The November general election created a vacancy on the New Rochelle Public Library Board of Trustees. Trustee Damon Maher resigned from the Board of Trustees after he was elected county legislator for District 10. The Board is now seeking applications from residents interested in serving the remainder of Maher’s term, which will end on June 30, 2018.

New Rochelle residents interested in being considered for the temporary position should submit resumes or biographical statements to the New Rochelle Board of Trustees Nominating Committee, NRPL, 1 Library Plaza, New Rochelle, NY 10801, before Dec. 15, 2018. The board will review the submissions and expects to fill the appointment at the Jan. 11, 2018, Board of Trustees Meeting.

The annual library trustees election in May 2018 will include filling three library trustee positions: two for the regularly scheduled election of a trustee for a five-year term, as Maher’s and Quentin Jacob’s terms will end on June 30, 2018.

The third position will be to complete the last year of Haina Just-Michael’s former seat. She resigned in September because she and her family are moving out of New Rochelle.

The two candidates who receive the most votes will serve the five-year terms.
