Edson Stevens has given more than his share of time to the residents of the town of Forestville. For almost 20 years, Stevens served as town chairman and in addition has served as director of the Southern Door Fire Department board. He recently resigned from both positions, citing health reasons. He is to be commended and thanked for his many years of service.

On Oct. 9, the Town Board appointed Supervisor Gerald Uecker as town chairman to replace Stevens, and the board is now seeking a person to fill the position of town supervisor for the term expiring April 2011.

The board also is looking for someone who will serve a two-year term as director for the Southern Door Fire Department Board left vacant by Stevens.

Applicants must be a resident of the town of Forestville. Interested applicants should call (920) 856-6620 or (920) 856-6551.
