PALMER LAKE, Colo. (KOAA) — Another Palmer Lake Trustee has resigned from his position. The Town of Palmer Lake says Michael Boyett submitted his resignation effective Friday, citing health concerns after a heart procedure last month.

Boyett wrote in part the following in his resignation letter:

“It seems civility, thoughtful comments, and the ability to see the other side of an issue have taken a back seat to anger and abuse... In November of this year, I underwent a heart procedure that was brought on, in part, by the stress I feel as a Palmer Lake trustee. My cardiologist advised me to get out of politics, so I am going to take his advice and resign my position as a Palmer Lake Trustee effective December 12, 2025."

Boyett is the fourth Trustee to resign in the last six months. At Thursday night's meeting, Tim Caves stepped down from the Board of Trustees, and the Town Attorney, Scott Krob, also resigned.

The Palmer Lake Board of Trustees will now determine how to move forward with the vacancy. For more information on town meetings and updates, visit the Town of Palmer Lake's website.
