My resignation does not indicate any lessening of my passion for the arts, quite the contrary. At this very difficult time in the county, state and country, I find I am ever more impassioned about the need for the arts — especially as they relate to children and education. I have come to my decision as an expression of my support for my negative vote regarding the Commission's decision to spend down its existing funds for this year and then likely cease to exist. As I said in the retreat, I believe that we are not providing enough services or have enough relevance to warrant either our continued existence or the Board of Supervisors' allocation of further funding. However, I also believe the Supervisors need to recognize that if they vote to discontinue funding for AC5 that their decision must be viewed as temporary until such time as the financial picture improves. Healthy societies need organized bodies that protect, advocate for, and nourish the arts, and this county is no different. I am truly sorry to have to make this decision to resign; however, I believe it is my only course based on my stance regarding the Commission. However, I will continue to support the arts and do whatever I can to make sure that the arts are not forgotten. 'hank you to you and all the Commissioners for your hard work and dedication. I look forward to working with you in the future. Sincerely, Susan J.

As was discussed with you over the phone a few days ago, I am honored to have been a part of this critical advisory arm supporting the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors over the past years. I believe that the Commission as a whole, through its structure of bringing multiple perspectives on hazardous materials issues,has achieved a great deal in making our county a safer place for the communities, environment,workers,and businesses who reside here. I also believe that the Commission has a great deal of continued and unfinished business pertaining to hazardous materials in our county and particularly in the timely development of a final drug lab protocol similar to those currently implemented within other counties in our state. I truly hope that such efforts will continue to be championed by others within the Commission in my absence and would be happy to snake myself available for continued consultation on this and similar matters upon request. In closing, I am proud to have been a part of this important advisory group and wish all of its members the best of luck in their continued efforts and service to Contra Costa County.
