	SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 688
	WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
	recognize Pearland Police Chief Joseph Christopher Doyle, who
	is retiring after 38 years of service with the Pearland Police
	Department; and
	WHEREAS, Chief Doyle joined the Pearland Police Department
	in January of 1979, and his impressive career has included
	experience in nearly every aspect of police work; in his time
	with the department, he has served as a detective, a patrol
	sergeant, and a commander for a multi-agency special weapons and
	tactics team; and
	WHEREAS, This exemplary public servant has handled his
	far-reaching responsibilities with exceptional skill and
	dedication and has acted with courage and tenacity in protecting
	the community he loves; he is noted for playing an instrumental
	role in acquiring and implementing the state-of-the-art radio
	and laptop systems currently in use by the department; and
	WHEREAS, Chief Doyle was promoted to assistant chief of
	police in 1994, and he has led the department since his
	appointment to chief of police in 1999; he is the longest-serving
	chief in the department's 57-year history; and
	WHEREAS, A respected and admired member of his community,
	Chief Doyle has received numerous letters of commendation for
	exceeding the call of duty in his job performance and for
	fostering cooperation with law enforcement partners outside of
	the Pearland department when handling cross-jurisdictional
	investigations; he has displayed superior judgment in dealing
	with the unique challenges of law enforcement duty, and his
	presence at the Pearland Police Department will be greatly missed;
	now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th
	Legislature, hereby commend Pearland Police Chief Joseph
	Christopher Doyle for his many contributions to his community and
	extend to him best wishes for the future; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for him
	as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate.

	Taylor of Galveston
