EASTHAMPTON – City Councilor at-large Lindsey M. Rothschild on Thursday officially announced she will resign from the nine-person body effective June 30.
Her term was to expire Dec. 31, 2023.
“As a mother of a rising fourth grader and a business owner, I’ve found myself recently very overwhelmed with also meeting my commitment as a city council member and thus have decided to refocus my time and priorities,” she said in a letter dated June 16 to City Council president Homar Gomez.
“Thank you for your leadership, President Gomez. Rest assured that, although I will not be at the City Council table with you, I will still be contributing my perspective and time to the City of Easthampton,” Rothschild wrote.
She added, “Please accept this letter as my formal resignation from my position as City Councilor at-large for the City of Easthampton effective June 30, 2022. It has been a great honor to serve the City of Easthampton alongside my fellow elected representatives.”
Rothschild was first elected to the City Council in November 2019.
