HomeMy WebLinkAboutBill Bartlett resignation letter, 5-12Dear Bill and Commissioners, via Aimee:
My term was to expire last December but I extended my service out of concern that the board might be under-experienced. I now observe a healthy,
viable board functioning as well, if not better, than it has since I became a member. The new class of board members brings a level of energy, passion and commitment that are so satisfying
and encouraging that I believe the high level of functioning of this board no longer needs my experience. Therefore, I am confident that my resignation will not be disadvantageous to
the board’s mission.
Another consideration in my resignation is the interest in the board shown by Mike Davis, who has now applied for acceptance to the board. His work with the Town
of West Yellowstone as a prosecutor and his occasional work defending municipalities in civil suits qualify him in ways that are uniquely suited for the position.
My service on the
Bike Advisory Board has enlightened my citizenship and generated uplifting faith in our local government. I always appreciated my good fortune in living here; now I have even more reason
to be proud of our community and its caretakers. Thank you all for the opportunity.
I ask that my resignation be effective on May 31, 2012, and offer my personal recommendation that
Mike Davis succeed me in that board position.
Very truly yours,
William A. Bartlett
