Good for her. She was reappointed to the JTA board by the mayor (Peyton) in 2011. Will she resign her position or continue to serve from a distance?
It's up to her. She's also been on the SUS board and has done that from a distance.

It is one thing to serve on a board. It is quite another to be an employee.
^Huh? Why wouldn't she be able to serve on the JTA board from Lakeland?
