Box 66 <br />Crystal Bay, MN 55323 <br />Dear John: <br />I am writing this as a letter of resignation from my .'ark <br />Commission position for the City of Orono. I have enjoyed serving <br />on this commission since 1988 and working with you, the commission <br />members and other staff members relating to park issues. I espe­ <br />cially enjoyed working to help update the City's park dedication <br />fees, and to help resolve the Bederwood baseball situation and move <br />the community baseball diamond concept forward. Your efforts were <br />^2,ways invaluable and encouraging, and you worked well with the <br />other commission members in helping move these matters forward. <br />Over the past several months, my volunteer and legal activities <br />on behalf of Governor Arne Carlson have increased dramatically. 1 <br />anticipate that this might continue being a major time commitment on <br />my part, which I also thoroughly enjoy. However, it is impossible <br />to devote enough time to both tasks and still do justice for my law <br />practice and family time. I know there are a number of very inter­ <br />ested and qualified individuals who would be excited to serve on the <br />park commission at this point in time, and I anticipate that the <br />good work of the Park Commission will continue. <br />Accordingly, effective after the July 2, 1991 meeting, I resign <br />my Park Commission position. I would appreciate it if you would <br />relay this to the City Council so they can publish an announcement <br />as soon as possible about the vacancy and have my seat filled some­ <br />time in the immediate future. Thanks again for all your work, and <br />it was really a pleasure getting to know and work with you. <br />Yours trul <br />JHG/nj <br />mif <br />James H. iGilbert <br />cc: Mr. Dick Flint <br />aft-1 I II' m
