Subject: Resigning from Cultural Arts Committee
Date: Monday, November 29, 2021 1:58:07 PM
Dear Mayor Kelly and Councilwoman Quintanilla, please consider this my letter of
resignation from the Cultural Arts Committee, effective Dec. 31, 2021. At that time I will have
fulfilled my commitment to serve as this year's chair. For multiple reasons, I am unable to
continue as a regular member through the rest of my appointed term.
It's been an honor to serve on the commission. I'm proud of the contributions I made to Palm
Desert and look forward to seeing future developments from the expanded scope and mission,
particularly along San Pablo, El Paseo, and in the north sphere.
Over the past few years I've had the pleasure of working with several dedicated, smart,
talented individuals. Two who deserve special recognition are Amy Lawrence and Debbie
Thompson. They made the volunteer experience meaningful while handling countless details
so that it was not onerous, and always with grace and professionalism. They are what makes
Palm Desert an effective, energetic, well -run city, and a place that I'm proud to call home.
Thank you for this opportunity. I appreciate all you do for Palm Desert and wish you the best.
Sincerely,
Susan
