Box 3006 Lodi, California 95241-1910 Dear Mayor Pennino: I have been reviewing my responsibilities as the Chairperson of the Gang Alternative Project and have come to the conclusion that my involvement has reached the point that I feel that my services are no longer necessary. The present membership includes a very good cross section of the Community of Lodi and I believe that these individuals can continue to offer positive recommendation for the gang problems in our community. My interest in this problem of gangs was the direct result of my daughter who was threatened by a gang member at her high school. I new then that I must do something because if this happened to my daughter it could effect someone else's child. As a resident of the Woodbridge/Lodi area I felt if we could have a coordinated effort we could pool our resources from the City Manager's Office, Police Department, School District, Business Community and interested citizens to offer these gang youths other positive opportunities. The GAP Project has made important recommendations that involved helping these youth with jobs, GED/High school education, mentoring and Cinco de Mayo celebration. Just with these positive activities I believe that the GAP Project will have a greater impact in the future. Therefore, I am resigning from the GAP Project effective August 9, 1993. It has been a pleasure being a member and chairing the GAP Project for the past 9 months. I also want to thank the City Manager's Office for supporting this effort, Police Department, Lt. Richard Dean and City Council who created this citizens Task force. Once again thank you for this great opportunity. •Si erely, t` er cto P.
