A house RESOLUTION
TO COMMEND THE HONORABLE KaTHY RAWLS, AIKEN COUNTY COUNCIL MEMBER, AS SHE RETIREs AFTER MORE THAN THIRTY YEARS OF DEVOTED AND EXEMPLARY SERVICE, AND TO WISH HER CONTINUED SUCCESS AND PLEASURE IN ALL HER FUTURE ENDEAVORS.
Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives learned that the Honorable Kathy Rawls began a well-earned retirement on December 31, 2022, after thirty-one years as a member of Aiken County Council; and
Whereas, first elected to Aiken County Council in 1988 and re-elected for four more years in 1990, Mrs. Rawls took a brief interval from the council and returned in 1997, serving the county's District 1 since then. During her tenure, she served on the Development and Administrative committees, as well as on the Lower Savannah Council of Governments and other public service agencies, while serving the residents of District 1 as a priority and seeking the best for the entire county and its citizens; and
Whereas, she has provided notable leadership to the rapidly growing community: construction of a larger Aiken County Animal Shelter, development of zoning and subdivision regulations, establishment of the E-911 Emergency Dispatch System and expansion of Emergency Medical Services, improvements to the Aiken County Judicial Center and to county parks, a modern detention center with more security for officers and detainees, and purchase of seven 3,000-gallon fire tankers; and
Whereas, grateful for her history of distinguished service to Aiken County Council, the South Carolina House of Representatives takes great pleasure in extending best wishes to Kathy Rawls as she transitions to a richly deserved retirement and the unhurried pace of the days ahead. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, commend the Honorable Kathy Rawls, Aiken County Council member, as she retires after more than thirty years of devoted and exemplary service, and wish her continued success and pleasure in all her future endeavors.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Honorable Kathy Rawls.
