Mickey Disbrow, a Swanton Village Councilman elected in November of 2021, submitted a Letter of Resignation to Mayor Neil Toeppe which was read at the November 25, 2024 Council meeting.  Mayor Toeppe read the letter aloud during the meeting.  It reads as follows:

Dear Mayor Toeppe,

I am writing to inform you that I will be resigning from my position as Council Member for the Village of Swanton.  I have been fortunate to be part of this amazing team and have thoroughly enjoyed my time here.  I have learned a lot and have grown both personally and professionally from being on Council.  I have also had the opportunity to work with some incredible individuals.  I hope that my efforts have made a positive impact on the Village and its employees.  I want to take this opportunity to thank you for your support and guidance through my time as a Council Member.  Please consider this my formal resignation notice.

Mayor Toeppe then informed the five remaining Council Members of the procedure stated in the Ohio Revised Code required to fill the vacancy.  Council will have 30 days to elect a new Council Member which will serve the remaining one-year of Mr. Disbrow’s term.  If they fail to do so, the responsibility will fall to the Mayor.
