Chynoweth resigns from Urbana City Council
URBANA – Danielle Chynoweth, the senior member of the Urbana City Council, resigned Monday, citing a burgeoning professional career.
The resignation, in the form of a letter sent Monday, was effective immediately. Chynoweth did not attend Monday's council committee meeting and was unavailable for comment.
Chynoweth, a Ward 2 Democrat, has served seven years on the city council as perhaps its most liberal member. Her term runs until May 2009. Mayor Laurel Prussing will name a replacement, subject to council ratification, in coming weeks.
