Mayor Green's farewell read as new officials are sworn in
Summary
A farewell message from Mayor Green was read to the council and community, detailing 33 years of public service and more than $8 million in secured grants; multiple newly elected and returning officials were sworn into office during the meeting.
The council meeting included a formal reading of Mayor Green’s farewell message and the swearing-in of newly elected and returning officials.
A reader presented Mayor Green’s prepared remarks, which recounted more than three decades of service and listed grants and accomplishments the mayor attributes to her tenure, including about $3.5 million for home rehabilitation, more than $1 million for road improvements and more than $2 million in CDBG funds. The reader said Mayor Green wrote that she leaves office “with hope, pride, and a deep belief that Alador's best days are still ahead.” (Text as given in the meeting transcript.)
Following the farewell reading, several officials took the oath of office under the state formula. Officials who were sworn in during the session and named in the record include Chris Crowley, Rodney Forch and John Timmons; the meeting then resumed regular business. The clerk noted proclamations from Senator Sav’s office would be presented to Mayor Green and two departing councilmembers at a later time.
