|
|
Albon Wu, Laaiqa Muhammad, Unna Ramanathan, Gabriel Rodriguez, |
|
|
Brenda Frye, and Ted Lieb, have been named 2020 Volunteers of the |
|
|
Year; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Every year, Sugar Land city departments select |
|
|
exceptional volunteers who help foster an atmosphere of community |
|
|
and who enhance the delivery of city services through their |
|
|
efforts; each award recipient works with the Serve Sugar Land |

program, an initiative that provides residents with opportunities |

|
to become involved in municipal government while giving back to the |
|
|
community; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, This year's recognized volunteers collectively |
|
|
contributed more than 800 hours of service to the city in 2020, for |
|
|
the equivalent of over $24,000 in in-kind donations; their efforts |
|
|
were all the more valuable throughout 2020, as the community coped |
|
|
with the many challenges and hardships brought on by the COVID-19 |
|
|
pandemic; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The six honorees are Albon Wu, who served Parks & |
|
|
Recreation, Laaiqa Muhammad, who volunteered with Animal Services, |
|
|
Unna Ramanathan, who helped staff the T. E. Harman Center, Gabriel |
|
|
Rodriguez, who donated his time to Planning and Development |
|
|
Services, Brenda Frye, who volunteered at the Municipal Court, and |
|
|
Ted Lieb, who was a member of the Community Assistance Support Team; |
|
|
and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Those Texans who give freely of their time and |
|
|
talents to benefit their fellow residents make the world a better |
|
|
place through their actions and their example, and these six |
|
|
engaged citizens are indeed deserving of recognition for all that |
|
|
they have accomplished in behalf of their community; now, |
|
|
therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Albon Wu, Laaiqa Muhammad, Unna |
|
|
Ramanathan, Gabriel Rodriguez, Brenda Frye, and Ted Lieb on being |
|
|
named 2020 Volunteers of the Year by the City of Sugar Land and |
|
|
extend to them sincere best wishes for the future; and, be it |
|
|
further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That official copies of this resolution be prepared |
|
|
for the volunteers as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
|
House of Representatives. |
