Board adopts resolution honoring long‑time Santa Clara County Assessor Lawrence E. "Larry" Stone
Summary
The Board adopted a resolution recognizing Lawrence E. Stone for 47 years of public service, including multiple terms as Santa Clara County Assessor and contributions to statewide assessor collaborations.
The Board of Equalization adopted a resolution honoring Lawrence E. “Larry” Stone on his retirement as Santa Clara County Assessor. The resolution noted Stone’s 47 years of public service — beginning as a Sunnyvale City Council member and including multiple terms as Santa Clara County Assessor — and cited his leadership, technology modernization and repeated high marks on assessment accuracy surveys.
Vice Chair Lieber moved the resolution and recounted Stone’s community work and leadership; Member Schaefer and other members spoke in praise. The board approved the retirement resolution by roll call: Gaines, Lieber, Vasquez, Schaefer and Deputy Controller Imran all recorded aye votes.
Why it matters: the resolution records the BOE’s formal appreciation of a long‑serving county official and preserves his contributions in the public record. The board also noted Stone’s mentoring role among assessors and his long tenure in county government.
Decision: resolution adopted by unanimous roll call.
