Members of the City Council
Dear Mayor Strickland,
It has been an honor to serve the City of Huntington Beach and its residents as its City Historian during this time. I am requesting the City Council to please consider me for reappointment as the City's Historian for an additional four year term.
During this time I have received numerous email and phone requests from the public, City Council members and the media for information on former residents, photos of historical events and people, past local businesses and places that I was able to provide.
I also believe my 41 years of experience as docent at the historic Néwland House Museum. During these museum tours I have heen able to answer questions about people, places and events from both tourists and residents.
I believe my extensive knowledge of the city's histohistorical rical past is a unique asset I bring to the position of City Historian.
I would be honored and thankful for your support in my reappointment as City Historian for another four years,
Sincerely.
