In a surprise move, Kitty Hawk Town Manager Andy Stewart resigned Tuesday after nearly seven years at the post.
“The Town Council and staff wish Mr. Stewart the best in his future endeavors,” according to a brief statement. No reason was given for his departure.
Melody Clopton, Administrative Services Director for Kitty Hawk, has been appointed Interim Town Manager.
Stewart had been Kitty Hawk’s town manager since January 2016, after serving as Assistant City Manager for Satellite Beach in Brevard County, Florida and as the Assistant City Manager for the City of Auburndale and Town Manager for Dundee, Florida.
