Dear Mr. Mayor and Members of the Council:
I am herewith resigning from the Council effective
January 1, 1975. This is necessitated by the county po-
sition :which I will assume on that date.
My direct association with the council will be missed.
I expect we will have continuing contact and joint efforts
and to that I look forward.
Best wishes for the future.

CITY CLEmll<
the aiItIuuncL!ment thi-!, morning of in., app.-Antment to
cunt; }os ti-n, it b--comes, of course, necessalry that 1.
_aigr, from t'r,e Ci ty Council. I will today notify Che Council
of ,,my resignation e[[active January 1, 1975.
I have enjoyed tremendously the opportunity to have
served on the Council. I believe that my five years as a
Council member have been substantially productive and that as
i
a community we will continue to move ahead.
I view this appointment not as the end of any particular
involvement, but rather as a broadening of responsibilities
and as a larger opportun;_ty to participate in government. The
challenge of governmental service in a professional sense
while yet remaining in private law practice in this community
was, upon reflection, an attractive opportunity.
' In addition, my past efforts-in-the area of inter-govern--
mental relations and the decision-making process will likely
continue. I intend to continue to be a participating voice in
s
our efforts to bring about a fully cooperative intergovernmental
"=
w:
process within this state.
In short, I am enthusiastic and confident with regard
to the promise of local government. I am appreciative of
