Park named in honor
of West Melbourne's Jan Lieson
More
than 50 local leaders and residents were on hand to attend
the dedication of the Jan Lieson Crossroads Park on February
5. "This is a special day in the city's history", said David
Reynal, the city manager.
Ms. Lieson has served West
Melbourne for more than 21 years, with 16 of those on the
city council. She started as a member of the citizens
advisory board and then ended up on more then half dozen
other boards before it was all said and done. "Jan worked
hard", said Mayor Hal Rose. "She always came to meetings
prepared."
The ceremony
ended with Ms. Lieson saying "I wouldn't be here today if it
hadn't been for each and every one of you". We all
congratulate you Ms. Jan Lieson and thank you for your
service. |
