RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR Mendy Corder, municipal clerk
for the City of Cayce, as she RETIREs AFTER twenty-nine years OF outstanding
SERVICE, AND TO WISH HER much HAPPINESS IN HER well-deserved retirement.

W
hereas, it is
altogether fitting that the members of the South Carolina House of
Representatives should pause in their deliberations to commend Mendy Corder as
she begins a merited retirement after almost three decades with the City of
Cayce; and

W
hereas, in 1996, Ms.
Corder began her distinguished career with the City of Cayce as the city's
receptionist at the age of twenty-four, where her friendly presence and administrative
skills made her an indispensable part of the team; and

W
hereas, later she
served in the records department at the Cayce Police Department, supporting
critical operations with professional acumen, carefulness, and discretion,
before she returned to city hall, as her leadership and institutional knowledge
continued to grow. Ms. Corder served as administrative coordinator for the City
Manager's Office; and

W
hereas, in the role as
administrative coordinator, Ms. Corder played a key role in the daily functions
of city government and assumed responsibilities of municipal clerk, a position indispensable
in maintaining transparency, compliance, and the effortless functioning of city
council and municipal processes; and

W
hereas, she brought to
life the vision from the Mayors Institute for City Design for the award-winning
Soiree on State and superintended other events. She managed public buildings,
contributing behind the scenes to many of the programs, initiatives, meetings,
and community events that residents and staff have enjoyed and come to depend
on with sharp attention to detail, reliable guidance, and devotion to service;
and

W
hereas, Ms. Corder provided
leadership and organizational skills to far more than Soiree on State: the
Bluegrass Festival, Fall Fest, and appreciation dinners. She helped to develop
the Cayce Art Lot and to create the Cayce Cool Down, offering leadership and assistance
to ensure that each program would be successful. With these added activities,
she faithfully maintained her responsibilities as municipal clerk and continued
to care for the public buildings on campus; and

W
hereas, the members of
the South Carolina House of Representatives appreciate citizens who serve the
cities of our State with distinction, like Mendy Corder, with years of
distinguished service to City of Cayce, and they wish her many years of
enjoyment in her well-earned retirement. Now, therefore,

B
e it resolved by the
House of Representatives
:

T
hat the members of the
South Carolina
House of Representatives
,
by this resolution, recognize and honor Mendy Corder, municipal clerk for the
City of Cayce, as she retires after twenty-nine years of outstanding service
and wish her much happiness in her well-deserved retirement.

B
e it further resolved
that a copy of this resolution be presented to Mendy Corder.
