HOPEDALE — The newest member of the Board of Selectmen has resigned. "I have a sudden family emergency that necessitates that I resign from the board immediately," Glenda Hazard wrote, in a message she said she sent to the rest of the three-member board and others Thursday. Hazard was elected overwhelmingly in a December special election over two opponents, to temporarily fill the seat left vacant on the board when former Selectman Thomas Wesley moved out of town. "It was my intention to run in May and this is a sad situation for me on many levels," Hazard wrote. "I hope that you and the residents will understand that my family has to be my priority right now and that they will see fit to let me return to the board at some point in the future."
