On Wednesday, September 18th, the Dresden Town Board unanimously appointed Mr. Charles Tall, of Huletts Landing to the position of Town Supervisor.

There was an announcement requesting any other interested candidates or any other considerations and there were none. The town has much pressing business and needed a Town Supervisor to deal with numerous issues. Congratulations and thanks to Mr. Tall for stepping forward.
