WHEREAS, Americans are served every single day by public servants at the federal,
state, county and city levels. These unsung heroes do the work that keeps our nation working;
and
WHEREAS, public employees take not only jobs, but oaths; and
WHEREAS, many public servants, including military personnel, police officers,
firefighters, border patrol officers, embassy employees, health care professionals and others, risk
their lives each day in service to the people of the United States and around the world; and
WHEREAS, the City of Fort Collins employs more than 2,400 such public servants, who
provide diverse services to our community, ranging from utility lineworkers and building
inspectors to customer service representatives, youth sport coaches, traffic engineers and more;
and
WHEREAS, without these public servants, continuity would be impossible in a
democracy that regularly changes its leaders and elected officials.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Doug Hutchinson, Mayor of the City of Fort Collins, do
hereby proclaim May 5-11, 2008, as
PUBLIC SERVICE RECOGNITION WEEK
in honor of the millions of public employees at the federal, state, county, and city levels. All

employees at all levels-federal, state, county and municipal.
