Clark County Park District Director Charity Murphy Quit Today -

BY JOHN KRAFT & KIRK ALLEN

ON February 10, 2017

CLARK CO., IL. (ECWd) -

At a Clark County Park District special meeting tonight, February 10, 2017, it was revealed after executive session that Charity Murphy had quit today. Previously she had submitted her resignation for her last day at work to be on March 31, the board did not accept it, and she submitted an email to the board stating her intention was to still resign on March 31st.

Today's resignation is no shocker, as it was only a matter of time.

The board took action and named Jana Williamson as temporary (interim) director until a permanent one can be found, in spite of the fact no such action item was listed on the agenda.

Video of part 1 of the meeting is below:

and of part 2 - naming interim temporary director:

    So…..Ms. Murphy was a quitter and a liar? Quit the job and lied about when her last day was going to be?

    This Park Is as crazy as the one in our county. I couldn’t for the life of me figure out why they didn’t accept her resignation. Is the Park District better off for her quitting, from what I read of her dealings – it won’t be any worse – but the Board needs to give direction that the Park staff is to “serve the general public, fairly, equally”.
