Del. Franklin P. Hall (D-Richmond) will retire next month after more than three decades in the House.

Gov. Timothy M. Kaine (D) will appoint Hall to the Virginia Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission.

"Frank Hall has been a friend and colleague for many years, and has faithfully served the people of Virginia for several decades," Kaine said. "He brings a wealth of experience and talent to his new job, having represented clients before the ABC Commission during more than 40 years as an attorney."

Hall has represented the Richmond area since 1975 and was Democratic leader from 2002 to 2008. His last day in the House will be April 14.
