Missy, Brian just forwarded your resignation letter to the chair and cc’d me. Firstly, know that I have great respect for
your position and understand it was a very difficult choice. Your ethics are admirable. I do, however, want to make a
correction. I did not say that you couldn’t speak to anyone as a commissioner about the project. I indicated that it was
an ethical decision and a “best practice” would be to forego speaking to anyone about the project. As this is an issue
that will come before the Commission at its next meeting I advised that until a policy had been determined an put in
place it would be best if you didn’t speak to anyone about it. However, that was not a legal mandate as the issue is an
ethical one until such a policy has been passed and implemented by the Commission. While I do not expect this will have
any effect on your resignation I wanted to set the record straight.
More importantly, I wanted to thank you for your service on the Commission. I have truly enjoyed working with you and
admire your knowledge of and passion about historic preservation. I wish you the best of luck and hope to have the
opportunity to work with you again soon. You are an asset to the community and will be sorely missed. Yours, Sherri
