DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATION:
The Department of Resource Management recommends that the Board of Supervisors adopt and present a resolution and plaque of appreciation honoring Robin D. Logan, Senior Public Works Maintenance Worker, upon his retirement from the Department of Resource Management with over 31 years of dedicated service to Solano County.
SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
Robin Logan began his career with the Solano County Public Works Operations Division when he was permanently hired onto the Rio Vista Road Crew in December of 1986 as a Public Works Maintenance Worker. Over the course of his 31 plus years of distinguished service with Solano County, Mr. Logan worked on the Rio Vista Road Crew at the Rio Vista Corporation Yard as a Public Works Maintenance Worker, the Fairfield Road Crew as both Public Works Maintenance Worker and Senior Public Works Maintenance Worker and Traffic Maintenance Crew in the Fairfield Corporation Yard as Senior Public Works Maintenance Worker. Mr. Logan was instrumental in updating road signs and guardrails to the latest quality standards to ensure the safety of the public and Public Works crews. Mr. Logan’s knowledge, experience and expertise in various traffic-related laws, activities, bridge systems and emergency response has proven him to be a valuable asset to the County and its residents and earned him the respect of management, peers and the public.
Mr. Logan will retire on April 18, 2018, as a Senior Public Works Maintenance Worker with the Department of Resource Management. His retirement brings to a close a model career of active service to the residents and visitors of Solano County.
Mr. Logan will be missed for his expertise, dedication, kindness and humor, which enriched the lives of those fortunate enough to know him in his time here with the County of Solano. His high level of commitment to his job and the Solano community was evident throughout his career with the County.
Mr. Logan presently lives in the Fairfield area, enjoys spending time with family, traveling, buying and selling items and going to flea markets; once he retires he plans on traveling to England with family and having every day off, rather than only every other Monday.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The costs associated with preparing the agenda item is nominal and absorbed by the department’s FY2017/18 Adopted Budget. The costs associated with preparation and purchase of the resolution materials and plaque are included in the Board’s FY2017/18 Adopted Budget.
ALTERNATIVES:
The Board may choose to not approve the resolution and plaque of appreciation. This alternative is not recommended because Mr. Logan’s service to Solano County is worthy of recognition and provides a positive example for others.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
None.
CAO RECOMMENDATION:
APPROVE DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATION
