August 30, 1965 The City Council City Hall Seal Beach, California Gentlemen: Having just voted to accept the resignation of Mayor Robert Griswold who is the council representative to District Number Two, I find it advisable to submit my resig~ation as councilman serving the at-large representation unexpired term of Al R. Leonard. This te~ will expire in 1966. I am taking this action because I believe that it is time that the City Council, in te~s of its representation, be expanded.

By accepting may appoint me to serve Mr. Griswold'S unexpired term and therefore only one representative will be residing in District Number Two.
