Poch resigns from council

He is honored for 28 years of service

The town of Coulee Dam is advertising for a new councilperson.

Veteran Councilmember Bob Poch announced that he is quitting the council after a 28-year stint and it was time to hang it up.

He was recently elected to another four-year term last November.

Poch was honored at last Wednesday’s council meeting for his long service to the town.

Mayor Greg Wilder thanked Poch for his contributions to community life and said the town would begin advertising for a person interested in serving immediately.

“Poch’s long-term service is symbolic of a dedication and commitment to service that is rare and exceptional,” Wilder said.

Wilder then revealed a new form for people interested in serving on the council to fill out. Persons interested in serving can learn more about it by calling city hall at 633-0320.

Wilder said he would like to see the council seat filled as soon as possible.
