He’s coming in at a difficult time, a challenging time as we saw tonight. It’s going to be a lot of budget challenges over the next few months if not the next few years, which I think the city is well positioned to deal with those. You know in the short run sometimes things are bad, things can get broken down and in a short period of time you can look at things and think it got worse over the last few weeks. But I think with Clayton in the long run it’s always upward, the trajectory is positive and I’m confident that things will continue to go well. As someone that is about to be a constituent of yours in the next few minutes I just wanted you to know that no pressure, but I do expect great things from the City of Clayton over the next decade. Of course, if I could ever be of any assistance to any of you, especially to you Dan, please do not hesitate to reach out. People over the last few months have frequently asked me if I’m happy or sad to be leaving the Board and you know, the answer is like, yes both at the same time.

There will be parts of this job that I won’t miss, I’m sure you guys can all relate, but for the most part it’s been a great experience for me, it’s been very positive, I’ve enjoyed our camaraderie, I’ve enjoyed serving this great city and our great residents, it’s been an important part of my life, I’ve worked hard at it, met a lot of people, I’ve learned a lot, I’ve developed a deeper understanding of good government and I’ll take that with me into my other endeavors. With all that said I will now turn the Ward 3 over to Dan Sokol. Motion made by Alderman Boulton to adjourn Sine Die. Alderman Lintz seconded.
