'" '</' ~ STATEMENT TO THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS - April 21, 1980 It has been a great honor and privilege for me to have served on the Board of Commissioners since 1972; but today I am resigning my position as a Commissioner effective at the close of the meeting to be held on April 28, 1980. As you all know, a little over a year ago I became a candidate for the 7th District Seat in Congress. Now the demands on my time with the campaign have escalated to the point that I believe it would unfair to the citizens of our county for me to continue as a Commissioner for these last few months. I love this county and its people and have always tried to give my best to them, and I would not want to continue to serve if time did not permit me to continue giving my best. I do look forward to serving the people of our county and the other five counties in this district as a member of Congress after November. With the Lord's help, I'm going to win this campaign, and my office will be open to anyone in this district who needs help. It is my earnest hope that the New Hanover County Republican Executive Committee will nominate and the remain- ing four commissioners will appoint someone to fill the unexpired portion of my term who holds a strong conservative philosophy. The citizens of our county have elected me twice with very heavy votes, and the views I hold should continue to be represented on this Board. I do not plan to have a part in the selection of a nominee to succeed me; but when someone is appointed to the vacancy, I will be glad to give advice and assistance to my successor if such is desired. Our county has many fine people working in its various departments, and it has been a pleasure to work with them. It has been a source of satisfaction to me that I have had a part in selecting two very fine county managers, because the tone of the county's work is set by the person who carries out the Board of Commissioners' policies. Leaving a position such as this is difficult as there are always problems you would like to see solved and projects you would like to see completed. I am satisfied, however, that I have given my best to the county; and I will give my best to all six counties in this district as a member of Congress after November. I have enjoyed working with this Board and the staff and pray God will guide and bless each of you. Thank you. ~/Y~ Vivian S.
