Resolution of the City Council of the City of St. Louis Park, Minnesota
recognizing the contributions and expressing appreciation to
Engineering Office Assistant Char Rohlik
Whereas, Char Rohlik began her employment with the City of St. Louis Park over 39 years ago
starting in February of 1971 as a keypunch operator in accounting until August 1974, returning in
January 1983 as a clerk typist, ending her tenure as the Engineering Office Assistant; and
Whereas, Char has provided administrative assistance and support services in a professional
and responsive manner to the engineering department staff and many other city staff,
collaborating with others to ensure that the city’s business needs are met; and
Whereas, Char has provided exceptional and responsive customer services to both internal
and external customers, issuing permits, answering questions, and just listening; her
willingness to help others and genuine love of her job will be greatly missed; and
Whereas, Char has coordinated the preparation of thousands of agendas, resolutions,
ordinances, public hearing notices and other materials for the city council (with the exception
of this one); and
Whereas, Char has assisted the engineering department with millions and millions of dollars
in contracts, coordinating the document preparation, distribution of bid packages, intake of
bids, and tracking for hundreds of public bidding processes, in addition to maintaining accurate
files, record systems, and payment information for the department; and
Whereas, in 2009, Char was nominated by her peers to receive the Spirit of St. Louis Park
Award, a well-deserved honor recognizing exemplary city employees; and
Whereas, Char plans to enjoy her retirement with family and friends, working Twins games,
bringing the engineering staff vegetables from her garden, travelling to Alaska and beyond,
supporting veterans through greeting troops at the Armed Forces Service Center and
participating in the annual Honor Flight;
Now therefore be it resolved that the City Council of the City of St. Louis Park, Minnesota,
by this resolution and public record, would like to thank Char Rohlik for her great contributions
and more than 39 years of dedicated service to the City of St. Louis Park and wish her the best
in her retirement.
