A Plainfield city worker who was ousted from her role on the planning board after being caught on video making offensive comments has now stepped down from her role at HOPES CAP, Inc., a charitable organization.

Carmancita Pile was previously removed from her position on Plainfield’s planning board. Pile was captured on video making insensitive comments toward those who lost their homes due to an apartment building being condemned in Plainfield.
