RANDOLPH — A city ordinance banning a Randolph City Council member to hold a seat on the city council by moving into another city ward prompted Tim Kint to resign from his seat representing the city’s North Ward.
Kint said Monday that resigning his post, which expires Dec. 1, 2001, was necessary due to completion of a new residence in south Randolph – part of the Randolph South Ward.
Kint, who has served on the council for about 11 years now, said that he will seek to continue to serve on the council by running for the South Ward seat against incumbent councilman Neil Kluver in this November’s general election.
