Mindell Lewis Penn[1] was a city council member in the city of Richmond, California between 1999 and 2005.[1] She was age 60 in 2005.[1] She was an executive for PG&E working in community relations and finance, and was elected twice as the chairwoman of the Sacramento Urban League board of directors.[2] She was first elected to the city council in 1999 and won re-election in November 2004.[1] She was elected by a large majority of voters, stating her mission was to, "make Richmond a clean, safe and beautiful place to live, work and play." She also served on the Rosie the Riveter project committee. She was the shortest council member in the city's history standing at 4 feet 10 inches. Penn received attention in April 2005 for plans, based on fatalities in Detroit, to improve the city's rental home inspection program. Detroit was again mentioned two months later when Penn resigned, six months into her second term, citing a desire to move to Detroit to live with her elderly mother.[1]
