July 19, 1954 -
ToW Clerk, Town of Queensbury j
Dear Madam:: J
i
I at addressing this letter to you to be presented to the Town
Board at the special meeting to be held on this date.
I
I have paid -taxes in the Town of Queensbury continuously since
1926. Daring that time I have had severgl pieces of property,_in my own
name and some in which my name does not appear. At the time of my
election and taking office I did not appear on the assessment roll as
a taxpayer. I did not realize that fact until some time- after I had taken
office`. ,
I
{ I immediately corrected this condition and am now a taxpayer of
record.
I: feel that the technicality of not qualifying at the time of my 1
election. may embarrass the Board and so I now submit my resignation from
the office of Councilman off. the Town of Queensbury so that this tech-
nical position may be rectified..
Yours truly,
Richard C. Davis
