There was a public outcry at tonight’s Town Board meeting requesting that the Town board take action and remove Richard Edsall as Cape Vincent Planning Board Chairman.

Town Supervisor Urban Hirschey considered very carefully what the citizens had to say.

Mr. Hirschey stated that it was not within the scope of the board’s authority to remove Edsall as Planning Board chairman, However Supervisor Hirschey did make a motion for Edsall to follow the Planning Board by-laws and he mentioned that Edsall should not make things up as he goes along additionally he stated that Planning Board Chairman Edsall should recuse himself from all wind issues.
The motion was seconded by Councilman Brooks Bragdon, then Councilman Donny Mason began defending Chairman Edsalls behavior.
Blaming Edsalls actions on websites cameras and half-truths.
The motion was voted down three to two~
