Resignation Announcement and Call for Appointment of Board Member
Dear Parke Members,
The Board of Directors regretfully announces the resignation of Board Member David Deutsch, effective Tuesday, January 15th. David has accepted an interim City Manager position in a Maryland municipality after providing consultant services to such. David, regretfully, feels that this acceptance would limit his effectiveness as a Parke Board Member. The Parke Board of Directors thanks David for his contributions since May 2018 and wishes him well in all of his future endeavors.
In accordance with the Bylaws section 5.3 Removal and Replacement -“In the event of a death, resignation or removal of a Director, a successor, who shall serve for the unexpired term of such Director’s predecessor, shall be selected by the remaining members of the Board. At its discretion, if less than six months remain of an unexpired term, the Board may hold the position vacant to be filled by election by Members at the Annual Meeting.”
The Board of Directors, noting that David’s term ends at the Annual Meeting of 2020, is requesting any Member who possesses an interest in fulfilling the unexpired term to contact any of the remaining Board Members, or the Board President. Please find their contact information here.
The Board of Directors is hopeful to appoint a qualified Parke Member to the vacancy as soon as possible.

Although hopeful for a strong response from Members, the Board really has no idea of the number of consideration submissions that it may receive. If the Board only receives 1 or 2 requests, then it would want to allow additional time for submissions. If the Board receives 4-5-6 or more, then the Board would close the submission period earlier. In either event, the Board will initiate an announcement to the Members advising the date that the submission period will be closed.
That stated, the ideal goal would be to have a Member presented to the Board for approval at the January 30, 2019 Board meeting.
When will the Board stop accepting requests from Members to be considered fr this appointment?
