The Clarendon Board of Aldermen was expected to accept the resignation of Mayor Chris Ford during a meeting Tuesday evening as the Enterprise went to press.
Ford told the paper Monday afternoon that he intended to preside during Tuesday’s regular city meeting and that his resignation would take effect at the close of the meeting. He cited personal reasons for his decision.
“I’m just overloaded and have too much on my plate,” Ford said. “So I’m resigning. It was a difficult decision, but it’s something I’ve been thinking about for some time.”
Tuesday’s agenda included closed session items for the board to deliberate the selection of a new city administrator as well as discussion of how to replace Ford.
