The Greenville Town Council was surprised Monday evening, Jan. 14, when both the Town Clerk and Deputy Clerk resigned.
Town Clerk Trish Hinton had already turned in her resignation and was not at the meeting.
Deputy Clerk Marsha Bass handed in her two-week notice at the meeting.
The resignations leave the town scrambling to find replacements for the positions, as well as a new town attorney. Their former town attorney was elected judge in the November election in Taylor County.
Hinton replaced former Town Clerk Sherry Roland, who was fire after money went missing from the town’s coffers. Roland was arrested on grand theft charges last year. Roland is scheduled to be arraignment in Circuit Court in Madison County on Feb. 7.
