Bedford honors library director Maria Redborn and City Manager Andrea Roy for years of service
Summary
During its Jan. 27 meeting, the Bedford City Council recognized Library Director Maria Redborn for 20 years of service and City Manager Andrea Roy for five years, citing major library projects, green-technology grants and Roy's leadership and employee-orientation efforts.
Bedford — The Bedford City Council used part of its Jan. 27 meeting to recognize two longtime city employees for their service.
Assistant City Manager Karen Riggs introduced Maria Redborn as the library director and credited her with leading the $12,500,000 capital project to build the current library, securing a $2,100,000 grant for solar, geothermal and roof upgrades that deliver roughly $20,000 in annual energy savings, implementing RFID materials-handling and winning multiple statewide library awards. "Maria defines community in everything that she does," Riggs said, calling Redborn "an incredible asset to this community." Redborn said it had been "an honor to serve the community that my kids grew up in."
Riggs also recognized Andrea Roy on the council's behalf for five years as city manager, praising Roy’s customer-service focus and the creation of quarterly new-employee orientation. "Andrea leads by example, especially when it comes to customer service," Riggs said. Roy thanked the council and staff and said she appreciated the opportunity to serve.
The recognitions were brief; the council then proceeded to public business and votes.
