To whom it may concern,
I know to be a part of the Human Rights Commission of Iowa City you must reside in Iowa City.
I moved to Cedar Rapids after I graduated from the University of Iowa in December of 2012.
With applying to the Commission I fully intend on moving back to Iowa City and have already
lined up housing in Iowa City. If you choose to let me join the cause to end discrimination in the
Iowa City area I will be residing there. I just wanted to clarify this; in fear you would see my
current address and that would deter the commission from my application. I look forward to
hopefully being able to volunteer with the commission.
Best regards,

Subject: Letter of resignation from Board of Adjustment
2 May 2013
Dear Sarah Walz, Mayor Hayek, and Brock Grenis,
I am writing to officially tender my resignation from my position on the Iowa City Board of Adjustment.
The May 2013 meeting will be the last meeting I am planning on attending.
My resignation is offered with mixed thoughts and emotions. It would be my preference to continue serving on the
Board, but it is clear that not being available for one or two meetings per year creates problems which impede the
Board's ability to be of fullest service to the citizens of Iowa City.
It has been a distinct privilege to serve as a member of the Board of Adjustment. It has been especially gratifying to
work with other members of the Iowa City community to discuss, offer guidance, and rule on matters of clear interest to
all. Fulfilling the position of Board Member would not be possible without the substantive work, diligence, and
exceptional dedication of the City of Iowa City Planning and Legal Staff & Administration. We are incredibly fortunate to
have important and necessary positions filled by exemplary public servants. The Board of Adjustment members, past
and present, with whom I have served also deserve notice for the important work they do and the great focus and
diversity of positions they articulate on behalf of our community.
I am grateful to the members of the Iowa City Council who appointed me to this position for the opportunities it has
provided me to learn and cooperate with others toward fostering a safer, more sustainable community for all of its
residents and visitors.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or points of order required beyond this letter.
Again, my thanks and my most sincere appreciation,
Will
