Five candidates were interviewed Tuesday for the vacancy created when School Board Trustee Sherry Frazier was forced to resign from her position over concerns of the McBride Road paving contract with Van Buren Township. Frazier also sits on the VBT Board.
A final selection will be made during Monday’s 7 p.m. meeting at the Belleville High School Commons. The term will run through Dec. 31, 2018.
The finalists are Darlene Honie Loyer Gerick, who came in just behind the winners in the November election, and Lisa Wysocki, who has never run for the board. Others interviewed were Victor De Libera, Elizabeth Doemer, and Katerina Tyner.

With all respect to Mrs. Frazier she wasn’t forced out. She chose to run for two boards and she chose the board she was going to resign from when it wasn’t legal to be on both. From what I can see that was all her choice and nobody else. so there is another thing that is bothering me, I see on the Savage strong site that somebody asked if these newcomers were vt supporters. He’s been gone like a year and a half. what the world does it matter now he’s old news. What does matter is that no one is paying attention to what happens now in the schools and that is a big issue. From that I see no one is minding the store. Accountability now. now. now. Forget vt, pay attention to now and whatis going on. it’s not pretty.
Frazier did not have to resign, instead the VPSB held the McBride road improvement contract up forcing Frazier to resign to allow the road to be paved. The two trustee positions were compatible.
