Kent County Levy Court records retirement resolution for wastewater facilities superintendent William M. Vincent Jr.

Kent County Levy Court on June 24 read and entered into the record Resolution 41-25, honoring William Maynard Vincent Jr. on his retirement after 40 years with Kent County’s wastewater division. The resolution, as read into the record, expresses “warmest appreciation and thanks” to William M. Vincent Jr. for his public service and states that the resolution be incorporated into the official minutes of the June 24, 2025 meeting of the Kent County Levy Court.

The reader of the resolution noted on a personal level that Bill Vincent is a family member and praised his work at the county treatment plant, saying he “has done an amazing job working at the treatment plant, being a father, being a husband, and being a good family member.” The transcript indicates the resolution language provides evidence of the retiree’s right to a pension under the Kent County Employees Retirement Program and that the resolution was to be signed by the president, vice president and all sitting Levy Court commissioners.

The meeting record includes a motion to adopt Resolution 41-25 and subsequent affirmative responses from the dais; the transcript does not contain a formal roll-call vote with names and tallies but shows the item as adopted into the minutes and prepared for signatures. The reader of the resolution identified a family relationship when offering personal remarks; those remarks were presented as a personal note separate from the formal resolution text.

The record does not include further details about pension calculations, effective retirement date beyond the meeting incorporation, or a separate personnel-action packet in the transcript. For verification of pension effective dates, benefit amounts or official signatures, the county’s personnel or retirement office and the final signed resolution should be consulted.
