Dear Ma ay:
Regrettably, I must resign from the General Plan Advisory Committee. Because of
scheduling conflicts I find I will miss several of the meetings and since continuity is so
important it would be best to have a replacement made early in the process.
I commend you for seeking extensive community input. The issues and solutions we
face in Newport Beach require strong leadership... best developed through effective
communication. The GPAC helps to serve this worthy purpose.
As a strong proponent of representative government, I feel we have elected Council
members that will provide that leadership. We must have confidence that the process
of governing is open and fair with clearly established objectives that address the
economic, social, educational, and environmental needs of our citizens. I did not
support the Greenlight Initiative because I felt it was in violation of this long held faith in
representative government, it should not be an issue of growth Vs no- growth but how
should a city adapt to ever changing needs, provide the infrastructure, services and the
vision of what its' future should hold for all of its citizens and most importantly, who
should be held accountable.
Mr. Mayor, we have an excellent City Council whose members strive in every way to
make Newport Beach the outstanding city that it is. The development of the General
Plan is the most important action taken by the Council and it is being done with care,
with thoughtfulness and in collaboration with the citizenry as a whole. We all owe you
our gratitude for this opportunity.
Though I will not be an active participant, I will be greatly interested in the progress and
outcome of GPAC.
Sincerely,
Marian Bergeson

P.S. One suggestion I might make is that there be some discussion on joint -use of
facilities. The access and coordination of services can be very cost- effective.
