RESIGNATION NOTIFICATION – Schuyler Butze
Good evening,
My apologies for a delayed response. I am currently navigating through a lot of career and
personal transitions at the moment.
Unfortunately, I am no longer an employee at Priority Waste (last active May 3rd, 2024). As a
result, I have relocated from my former place of residence in Berkley, MI to Cleveland, OH. This,
unfortunately, means I will no longer be able to fulfill my responsibilities on the Materials
Management Planning Committee for Oakland County.
I am devastated as I was greatly looking forward to this opportunity. I wish the board the best of
luck in their waste diversion and sustainability efforts. Again, I am devastated I cannot play a
role in those efforts.
Best,
Schuyler Butze (former Environmental Specialist and Sustainability Coordinator at Priority
Waste)
