Dr. Arthur O. Brink, City
Councilman from South Ward
for the past four years, today
submitted his resignation from
the Council, the action being re-
quired by his move of residence
from South Ward to West Ward.
The requirement is that a City
Councilman live in the ward he
represents,
At noon today Dr. Brink com-
pleted his move from Miami
Street to High Road, and his let-
ter of resignation has been
placed in the hands of Mayor
Foster Miller.
The letter of resignation will
not receive official action until
the next meeting of the City
Council, It is presumed that the
Council will act in the near fu-
ture to set an election to elect
a new Councilman from South
Ward.
In a brief interview with a
newspaper reporter, just prior to
press time, Dr. Brink stated
that he had thoroughly enjoyed
helping to operate the City —
that he had been happy to de-
vote time to city business, be-
cause he enjoyed it. He went on
to say that he appreciated the
confidence of the citizens of
Coleman in electing him to serve
on the Council and he hopes for
the very best for the City of
Coleman.
Dr. Brink’s letter, dated today,
and addressed to the Mayor and
City Council, reads as follows:
“It is with regret that my re-
signation from the City Council
is herewith submitted for your
approval.
“This action is necessary since
I have moved out of the ward in
which I was elected, and the last
act of moving was completed to-
day.
“The people of the City of
Coleman have been kind enough
to elect and support me, ''and
you, the Mayor and members of
the Council, have been very co-
operative and have worked dili-
gently during the past four
years.
“I wish you all the very best.”
