Former Board Trustee Calls For Saranac Mayor To Resign Over Residency

At a tense village board meeting on Monday, a former trustee of the board called for Mayor Jimmy Williams to resign, alleging that he does not live in the village and cannot legally serve as mayor. Williams argued that the law doesn’t bar him from holding elected office out of a residence he owns within the village. The Adirondack Daily Enterprise reports the issue comes down the the definition of “residence” in the state law.
