Harrisburg Receiver David Unkovic’s Letter of Resignation

His resignation in his own handwriting.

As submitted to the Commonwealth Court on March 30, 2012.

Judge Leadbetter, 

Please accept my resignation as Receiver for the City of Harrisburg. I have done the best to use my powers as Receiver to bring fiscal stability to the City of Harrisburg. However, I find myself in an untenable position in the political and ethical crosswinds and am no longer in a position to effectuate a solution.

I wish the citizens of the City of Harrisburg well in the ongoing quest for fiscal stability and good government, both of which they truly deserve.

I also thank the Commonwealth Court for its very fair treatment of me during my tenure as Receiver.

Sincerely, 

David Unkovic
