Subject: Resignation from the Pasadena rental housing board To: ALlison Henry, Helen Morales
Dear Chair, Rental Stabilization Department, and Members of the Board, I hope this message finds you well.

Since the beginning of the year, my professional responsibilities have required extensive travel, which has made it difficult for me to consistently attend meetings and fully participate in the work of the Pasadena Rental Housing Board.

After careful consideration, I believe it is in the best interest of our constituents and the integrity of the Board's work for me to step down from my position at this time.

Serving on the Board has been an honor. I remain deeply committed to housing stability, thoughtful policy, and civic engagement, and I am grateful for the opportunity to have worked alongside such dedicated colleagues in service to the residents of Pasadena.

Thankyouforthe opportunity to serve.

With appreciation,
Dianne Romero Chavez

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Senior Commission
DearDawneen,
hlope that you are well and that 2026 has gotten off to a good start.

I want to let you know that I am unable to get to the meeting today. Upon reflection, I am simply so busy at work that I am afraid that I really do need to resign. I have been hesitant to do so because I so enjoy the people who I serve with - most notably you and Ruby!
What I want to share is that the hluntington Hospital wants to continue to support the Senior Commission with materials as needed. The work that the commission does re to our senior population and access needs is so important and we are proud to continue to partner with the group on this.

Finally, thank you for your Leadership and the grace with which you conduct yourself in your role.

Sincerely,
Jane
