RESOLUTION NO. 1054
Series of 1987
TITLE: RESOLUTION HONORING HOWARD JAQUAY FOR OUTSTANDING SERVICE TO
THE CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO
WHEREAS, Howard Jaquay was called upon during the spring and
summer of 1987 to perform the duties both of Chief of Police and
Acting City Administrator within the City of Wheat Ridge; and
WHEREAS, being asked to perform either of those tasks, let
alone both tasks simultaneously, constitutes cruel and unusual punish-
ment; and
WHEREAS, Howard Jaquay, disregarding safety of body or sanity
of mind, admirably and meritoriously performed each function in an
outstanding manner; and
WHEREAS, the fact that Howard Jaquay was able to manage the
Wheat Ridge funny farm and keep the City Council at bay proves con-
clusively that the only truly effective way to manage the City of
Wheat Ridge and its elected officials is to wear, and to constantly
and conspicuously display, a loaded weapon; and
WHEREAS, Howard Jaquay has earned the respect of the elected
officials, employees and citizens of the City of Wheat Ridge through
his constant integrity and dedication, as well as his effective
stewardship during a difficult interim period;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY A VOTE OF ZERO IN FAVOR AND
EIGHT OPPOSED, THAT THE ELECTED OFFICIALS, EMPLOYEES, AND CITIZENS OF
THE CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, DO HEREBY RECOGNIZE AND COMMEND HOWARD JAQUAY
FOR HIS MERITORIOUS SERVICE TO THE CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE AND FOR A JOB
VERY WELL DONE AS ACTING CITY ADMINISTRATOR.
