Weber announces his resignation as ZAP chair
Thursday, February 2, 2017 by Elizabeth Pagano
Zoning and Platting Chair Thomas Weber broke the news during the Jan. 31 special work session of the land use commissions that he would be resigning from his leadership post effective Feb. 22. He said that he would serve for the next two meetings on Feb. 7 and Feb. 21, but then his time as chair would be over as he plans to leave Austin. “My wife and I are selling our house and moving to northwest Indiana,” Weber said at the meeting. “In Zoning and Platting, we actually had a discussion last year about cycling through chairs every year, and it will have been about a year.” He said that his time as chair has been an invaluable experience and that he was grateful to have served with the other commissioners.
