DERBY — James J. Butler today announced that he has resigned from the Board of Apportionment and Taxation, just days after being sworn in to a seat for which his father, James R. Butler, actually ran.
“I have tendered my resignation this morning from the tax board,” James J. Butler said in written statement this morning. “After speaking to my Dad, a mistake was made on the ballot with our middle initials.
