Town clerk to leave after 23-year stint
By JON WEINER | November 24At the end of this month, Chapel Hill will lose a woman who many agree has valiantly served the town and the public for the last 23 1/2 years. Town Clerk Joyce Smith's retirement will become official at 5:01 p.m. next Tuesday. "I told the town manager that you have to have fun with a job, and when it stops being fun, you should stop doing it," she said Tuesday morning. "Well, I'm still having fun, but too much for too long just makes you tired."
