Calvin Brooks to be Gardner Councilor at Large After All – after Kamuda resigns
Following the sudden resignation of Carolyn Kamuda for “personal reasons”, Calvin Brooks will become a Councilor-at-Large because he had the next highest vote total. Brooks has 26 years experience in municipal finance and retired in June 2023 as City Auditor of Fitchburg. It is expected he will be sworn in and be seen at the next City Council meeting.
Calvin Brooks lost by only 13 votes in the official count, garnering 1683 votes to Kamuda’s 1696. Now, he will serve for the next two years.
