In September 2018, Bissonnette announced that he and his wife Sharon had decided to move to Guildhall, Vermont, so he would no longer be able to represent Winooski[2]. However, because the move was sudden Bissonnette was still on the 2018 ballot in Winooski. He won reelection despite his plans to move [3]. Bissonette initially said he would serve the term he was elected to, but ultimately resigned his seat moved to Guildhall [4] in early 2019.
