I. received this email, forwarded to me from GHD CEO BarryJantz
To: Gloria Chadwick Cc: Michael Emerson; 'Michael T. Long; Deborah McElravy; Barry Jantz; Jeff Scott Subject: Rescission of Retirement Dear President Chadwick: I. earlier indicated that I would retire as a board member in order to be considered for appointment to the Projects Liaison Monitor position. The earlier notice was predicated on the assumption that the position was to be filled and that, if so, I would be considered amongst the various applicants. I. subsequently learned that the position, as included in the District's 2010-2011 budget, will not be filled notwithstanding the fact that it had been widely and publicly noticed in various media. My understanding is that the board has neither approved nor disapproved the retirement notice and has not taken action to fill the board position had it become vacant. Accordingly I notified you today that my retirement notice is rescinded. I will not retire at this time. Please note that a follow-up letter of resignation (as spelled out by the Government Code) would have been issued by me if the position had been valid and if I had been considered for it. My intention is to fulfill my obligation during the remaining two years of my four year term to which I was elected on November 4, 2008.

His problem is that he has already taken action based on the fact that he assumed his resignation was effective (i.e. applying for the position) and his picture has been removed from the wall, and his name plate duct-taped over. Both parties have demonstrated that the resignation was effective AND accepted. He can't back up now.
