Hemmings resigns from Dublin Town Council

The Patriot has learned that Dublin Town Councilwoman Peggy Hemmings has resigned her seat on council, effective March 1.

Mayor Benny Skeens confirmed this morning that Hemmings had resigned not only her council seat, but also her spots on the New River Resource Authority board and the REMSI board.

“Peggy and I were elected together in 1994 and have served together for many years,” Skeens said this morning. “Peggy has always represented the Town of Dublin with honesty and grace. We will miss Peggy and we all wish her nothing but the best.  Peggy served on the NRRA board for 20 years and also on the REMSI board. I know that our citizens will miss her hard work and dedication. We all owe her a big Thank You for all that she has done for our town.”
