RESOLUTION NO. 7095
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF AZUSA COMMENDING HUGH
GERHARZ FOR HIS SERVICES TO THE CITY.
WHEREAS, when Benjamin Franklin went on his kite
flying experiment, little did the world
know that one happy result would bring
together the City of Azusa and HUGH
GERHARZ in a long and happy association,
and
WHEREAS, HUGH, in all his sartorial splendor and
youthful elan, gives one pause to con-
sider that a long and -constant exposure
to electrical energy might perhaps be a
benefit to the human physical system,
and
WHEREAS, cause is given to reflect that Ponce de
Leon was looking in the wrong place for
the Fountain of Youth, but then electri-
city had yet to be discovered, and so we
now have HUGH as living testimony to the
veracity of that hypothesis, and
WHEREAS, he has been with the City of Azusa since
his employment on October Twenty -Seventh,
Nineteen Hundred and Forty -Four, when he
retires on May Eighth, Nineteen Hundred
and Eighty -Two, and
WHEREAS, even though energy costs have drastically
increased he has successfully maintained
the operation of a department that has
evolved into a very important asset of
our community;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the
City of Azusa, recognizing that HUGH has provided the City
with extremely effective supervision and management, and
that it will be hard pressed to find a person to succeed
HUGH, and the high standards he has established for the
position of Superintendent of Light and Power, heartily
commends HUGH GERHARZ for excellence as an employee and as
a resident of the City; further, it extends its best wishes
for a long and happy retirement.
ADOPTED AND APPROVED this 15th day of March, 1982.
