A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF RICHLAND COUNTY SHERIFF LEON LOTT AND TO DECLARE SATURDAY, MAY 31, 2008, AS "LEON LOTT DAY" IN HOPKINS, SOUTH CAROLINA.

Whereas, public service is an honorable calling which demands persons of character, courage, and integrity; and

Whereas, Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott embodies the best attributes of individuals called to serve; and

Whereas, a veteran with more than thirty years of law enforcement experience, Sheriff Lott has set a standard of excellence time and again as he rose through the ranks achieving the rank of Captain at the Richland County Sheriff's Department, Police Chief in St. Matthews, and presently Richland County Sheriff; and

Whereas, the high standards set by Sheriff Lott have led to improved community relations, and high levels of trust among the county's residents for the sheriff and his deputies. These occurrences have led to increased involvement by the citizenry in the department's affairs as well as affairs of the community; and

Whereas, in recognition of his service as Richland County Sheriff and in honor of his accomplishments, the General Assembly has determined to declare a day in his honor. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly recognize the accomplishments of Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott and declare Saturday, May 31, 2008, as "Leon Lott Day" in Hopkins, South Carolina.
