CONCORD — After taking full responsibility for not informing the governor of a Trump administration request for information on a potential ICE detention center in Merrimack, and offering an apology during an Executive Council emergency meeting Feb. 4, Sarah Stewart has resigned at Gov. Kelly Ayotte’s request.
Stewart was nominated commissioner of the state Department of Natural and Cultural Resources by former Gov. Chris Sununu, a Republican, in 2018. She had served two terms, but announced last November she would not be seeking a third term and would end her employment in June of this year.
