WHEREAS, A notable career in public service is drawing to a |
|
|
close on January 30, 2009, with the retirement of Judy Womack as the |
|
|
Mesquite city secretary; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Ms. Womack began her tenure with the City of |
|
|
Mesquite in 1984 as a secretary in the city's engineering division, |
|
|
where her ability and dedication were quickly recognized; she |
|
|
earned a promotion to administrative secretary five years later and |
|
|
became assistant city secretary in 1996; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Effective February 1, 2003, Ms. Womack undertook the |
|
|
position of city secretary and has served admirably in that |
|
|
capacity for six years; skilled in administrative duties, she ably |
|
|
coordinated numerous city events such as elections, banquets, and |
|
|
Student Government Day; she also succeeded in increasing public |
|
|
access to municipal information by posting relevant documents on |
|
|
the city's website, and she worked jointly with the city council's |
|
|
information technology department to streamline city operations by |
|
|
making agenda packets available electronically to members and |
|
|
staff; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, This diligent Texan has supported her community in |
|
|
other ways as well, serving as co-chair of the United Way committee, |
|
|
volunteering consistently to help with Christmas in the Park, and |
|
|
assisting in the city's relief efforts following Hurricane Katrina; |
|
|
her remarkable record of service prompted Mayor John Monaco to |
|
|
proclaim January 20, 2009, as Judy Womack Day in the city of |
|
|
Mesquite; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, In all of her endeavors, Ms. Womack has enjoyed the |
|
|
love and support of her husband, Bobby, and their two children, Matt |
|
|
and Hillary; following her retirement, she looks forward to |
|
|
traveling and spending more time with her family; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Judy Womack has earned the respect and admiration of |
|
|
council members and her other colleagues over the course of a |
|
|
quarter-century of service to the citizens of Mesquite, and she may |
|
|
indeed reflect with pride on a career well spent as she embarks on |
|
|
the next exciting chapter of her life; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 81st Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Judy Womack on the occasion of her |
|
|
retirement as Mesquite city secretary and extend to her sincere |
|
|
best wishes for continued success and happiness; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for Ms. Womack as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
|
House of Representatives. |
