North Strabane Chairman Resigns; Appointed to Parks and Recreation Director Position

The board voted Tuesday to hire the former chairman at a $60,000-a-year salary.

Minutes after resigning his position as the chairman of the North Strabane Township Board of Supervisors and being appointed as its parks and recreation director, he made residents a promise. "If you thought I was involved in the township before, you haven't seen anything yet," Greg Sulc said Tuesday. The appointment passed by a vote of 3-1, with Supervisor Bill Brooks dissenting. Sulc will make a salary of $60,000 and will be subject to a six-month probation period. Supervisors then reorganized, voting Supervisor Steve Motzer in as chairman and Brooks in as vice chair. It was unclear who would replace Sulc.

Full-time director expected to be in place before $8 million North Strabane park project is unveiled
