Kim Lehmkuhl, 34, accused of not doing her job as City Clerk resigned on Monday in a biting email A Pleasant Hill, California city clerk accused of tweeting during City Council meetings instead of taking minutes has resigned from her 'depressing' job with a biting email wishing 'good luck' to the 'schmuck' who has to take her place. Kim Lehmkuhl, 34, was elected as Pleasant Hill's clerk in 2012 and since has been criticized by the Mayor Tim Flaherty and other residents for writing opinionated Twitter updates during meetings instead of taking minutes. She was urged to resign. Lehmkuhl eventually left her position and not with a whimper but a fiery bang.
