Item/Subject: RESOLVE, Expressing Appreciation t0 Scott Bostock
for his Services as Acting Fire Chief
Responsible Department: City Council
Commentary:
The attached Resolve recognizes the contributions and service of
Scott Bostock as Acting Fire Chief during the period from January
through May of 1996. Scott's strong and stable leadership was
essential to the Department during the search for a replacement
for retired Chief John Foley. During this period, Scott
continued to guide the Department forward and to build upon its
tradition of excellence. His commitment to the Department and
the City has been essential during a period of continued rapid
change and challenge.
Manager I Comments:
As Scott's direct supervisor, I would also like to express my
thanks to him for a job well done. In many ways, an acting
position places greater challenges and demands on an individual
than a permanent appointment. Scott met these challenges and has
provided an invaluable service to the Department and the City
during this period of transition,
