Come December 2nd Larry Dodd will only be a member of the Wicomico County Council.
The Republican who won election to the seat this month is stepping down from his position on the Wicomico County Board of Education.
The Salisbury Daily Times reports that the decision came after Dodd had a conversation with school board attorney Fulton Jeffers about holding the two jobs until incoming Republican Governor Larry Hogan could replace him along with making another appointment.
He said that he was concerned the board would not be able to produce a quorum which requires at least four members.
Dodd said that after talking with the Jeffers he would quit as of December 1st.
He added that he had “no intention of fighting this.”
