0C TIY OF RCWPORT BEACH
This letter will serve as notification that I will be resigning my position as a
member and Chair of the Newport Beach Arts Commission, effective January 14,
2005.
Unfortunately, this resignation is required due to the change in my permanent
residence in California. I will be relocating, and therefore unable to continue my
public service to the City of Newport Beach.
I have appreciated the opportunity to serve in this capacity, and am thankful that
the city has chosen to be so supportive of the arts in the past. I encourage you
. and the City Council to maintain this level of support, and hope you continue to
ensure that arts - related activities and services are available to citizens and
students of Newport Beach.
Sincg ely yours,
J�
D vi Colley
