10. RESIGNATION OF EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, CHARLES F. LENNON, JR. (Cont'd <br />PRESIDENT FRED J. HELMEN: <br />Gentlemen: That is the bad news, with the good:' <br />Chuck, this is not the time to say all the nice things <br />I would like to say about you, but you have made our <br />job easier. I realize this is one opportunity you -can <br />not turn down, but with this terrific assignment I can <br />understand why you feel you have no alternative. <br />The City of South Bend - -I think the whole city here <br />will - -we will miss your work - -at least the rest of the <br />Board will, and the job you have done toward the city <br />and the image of South Bend has been fantastic over <br />the years - -you can look over the city with pride. <br />Congratulations on the assignment! It is their gain- - <br />our loss. We feel deeply moved; on the other hand, we <br />don't blame you in accepting this assignment for direc- <br />tor. <br />I know all the Commissioners feel very keenly about <br />losing you. You will be around in giving counsel and <br />guidance. <br />R. DONALD A. WIGGINS: <br />The only thing that offsets the bad news is that the <br />job will be a great challenge, I am sure. <br />I wish you well. <br />EVEREND'WILLIE V. WILLIAMS: <br />I also want to congratulate you on your new assignment. <br />We wish you the best. <br />gYOR JERRY J. MILLER: <br />I think that you all know two years ago when we had the <br />tremendous opportunity to be the first community in the <br />history of Indiana to implement the Agency- -the task to <br />implement a new Community Development Agency- -the first <br />of its kind in the County of St. Joseph, Indiana, and the <br />phasing out of the Redevelopment Program which your Com- <br />mission has brought to such a successful conclusion. Chuck <br />accepted the task. Chuck had an offer to go out of this <br />community for much more salary and greater responsibility, <br />but his dedication to South Bend and his profession compelled <br />him to stay and we implemented this program. <br />srM <br />
