Mr. Ryan Holroyd
Dear Mr. Holroyd,
Fifteen years may seem like a long time, but I would be willing to bet you've enjoyed every
minute as a "City Family" member. At this milestone the Mayor and Council would like to
take time during the June 6, 2023, meeting to recognize your contributions to the City. A
presentation is being scheduled at the very start of the meeting, which begins at 6:00
p.m., to extend to you a longevity service certificate and award.
In addition, I would also like to point out another change to your benefits by reaching this
milestone. Beginning in March, your annual leave accrual will increase to 13.3 hours per
month. Just one of the many ways the City says "thank you"for being so dedicated.
It is an honor for me to have this opportunity along with the Mayor and Council to offer a
most sincere, "Congratulations, you did it!"May there be many more years to come.
Should a scheduling conflict arise, please call my office, 763-3372 ext. 9814. We will be
sure and give you a reminder call the day of the meeting. Feel free to invite family
members and friends so they, too, may share in this occasion.
Sincerely,
an Gamiotea CMC
City Clerk/Pers nnel Administrator
