Pierce to Leave Council; Pushed Village Hall Plan Trustee J. D. Pierce, for five years |a members of the Village council, ten- | tered his resignation to President John |S. Miller Tuesday evening at the meet- ing of that body. Mr. Pierce said that he was forced to resign because his private business demands more time than he is able to give it and at the same time do justice to the position of Village trustee, The resignation was accepted with reluctance. Mr. Pierce resigned at this time be- cause, under the Village charter, no special election can be held to replace a trustee who has served nine months. This law was put into effect when Win- netka trustees served only one year, instead of two as is now the case. This means that, unless a trustee is elected at the regular Village election to be held April 6, there will be a vacancy during the coming year. It was neces- sary for the council to vote for the holding of the election last Tuesday evening, so Mr. Pierce resigned at that time. Tributes to his years of service in behalf of the residents of Winnetka were paid Mr. Pierce by his associates in the council. Mr, Pierce is chairman of the public buildings and grounds committee, and in that capacity has supervised the work on the new Vil- lage hall and on the new Village serv- ice yard. An amusing incident occurred in con- nection with his resignation. Mr. Pierce had originally intended:to make it effective after the coming élection, April 6. It was discovered, however, that the council could not ask the resi- dents to vote for an office which was not already vacant, Mr. Pierce then changed his resignation to take effect immediately, and business proceeded. When the time came to vote on other matters it was found that this could not be done, as there had been only four members of the council pres- ent, and with Trustee Pierce out of it there was not a quorum, Therefore Mr. Pierce made his resignation effec- tive the following morning and the council proceeded about its business of ordering an election for four village trustees and other officials.
