RE: Resignation from the Metropolitan Council
Dear Vice Mayor Gentry:
I offer this letter to you as formal notice of my resignation from the Eleventh Metro Council effective August 30, 2006. I write this letter with a sadness tempered with great anticipation for I shall fulfill a childhood dream when I am sworn in as a Circuit Court Judge on August 31, 2006.
I can say without any reservation that serving in the 10th and 11th Metro Councils has been the most expansive experience I have had to date in my life, and it has been a great honor to serve with so many who give to their communities so selflessly. And we have accomplished so much for the City in the past 7 years!
I shall miss my colleagues in the Metro Council. Each has opened my mind to new possibilities and thoughts on all manner of subjects. As a native Nashvillian I always prided myself on knowing my home well, but now that I have served with such a diverse group of elected representatives I realize that prior to my service in the Council I knew very little of Nashville and all of its residents.
And on a personal note, Mr. Vice Mayor, I want to thank you for the leadership appointments you have made possible during my service.
Once again, I thank you and each member of the Metro Council for your service to our community,
Most Sincerely,
/s/ Amanda McClendon
Circuit Judge-Elect, Division II
