Andrew Woolf has decided to leave Moulton Parish Council shortly after handing over as chairman to Coun Geoff Cooper.
Work and personal commitments were the reasons given by Coun Woolf who will continue to represent Moulton as a district councillor.
He said: “It’s always hard when you’re wearing so many hats so you have to take stock of what you can give.
“I have other things going on but I will still come to parish council meetings as a district councillor.”
