The Town of Emmitsburg extends its sincere gratitude and appreciation to Patrick B. Boyle for the many years of service to the Town. This service began in 1976 when Mr. Boyle served on the first Planning & Zoning Board ever put in place for the town. He then became the Zoning Administrator and also served for twenty years on the Parks and Recreation Committee. In 1988 he was elected to the Board of Commissioners and served as President of the Board for many years until he stepped down in 2004.

In the Spring of 2006, Mr. Boyle was appointed to serve as an alternate on the Board of Appeals, until early 2007 when he stepped down to serve on the Planning Commission. He served on the Planning Commission until January 1, 2018 – with many years as Chairman.

In addition to his service to the town government, Mr. Boyle has been an active member of the Emmitsburg community during his lifelong residence in the town. It is hoped that he will continue to be a presence and resource for many years to come.

On Behalf of the Town, the Mayor, and the Board of Commissioners, the Town of Emmitsburg would like to congratulate Patrick B. Boyle and thank him for a lifetime of service.

Award presented at February 5, 2018 town meeting.
