TO RECOGNIZE THE HONORABLE DOUG SAMPLES AND TO THANK HIM FOR HIS TIRELESS SERVICE TO THE PEOPLE OF THE TOWN OF SURFSIDE BEACH.
Whereas, the House of Representatives takes great pride in recognizing civil servants who give of their time and energy to serve their communities; and
Whereas, Doug Samples has been a tireless public servant, volunteering with Surfside Beach's stormwater committee from 2000 through 2002 before running for a position on the Surfside Beach Town Council; and
Whereas, elected in 2002, Samples has served on the Town Council for three terms and was elected mayor of Surfside Beach in 2012; and
Whereas, understanding the importance of resident and business participation, Samples adopted a less formal style so as to allow for greater community input into the business of Surfside Beach; and
Whereas, Mayor Samples focused heavily on improving and maintaining the quality of life that the residents of Surfside Beach expected by directing efforts to improve public infrastructure to retain the town's "family beach" atmosphere and image, supporting the town's tourism industry, and encouraging business investment; and
Whereas, thankful for his many years of service to the Town of Surfside Beach, it is fitting that the House of Representatives should pause in its deliberations to recognize Mayor Doug Samples and wish him well in all of his future endeavors. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize the Honorable Doug Samples and thank him for his tireless service to the people of the Town of Surfside Beach.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Honorable Doug Samples.
