Resolution of the City of St. Louis Park, Minnesota,
recognizing the contributions of and expressing appreciation to
Traffic Field Supervisor Rick Kiefer
Whereas, Rick Kiefer began his employment with the City of St. Louis Park over 29 years ago
on August 21, 1989, with the last 14 years in the promoted position of Traffic Field Supervisor; and
Whereas, Rick has provided excellent leadership and positive influe nce to the crew, led by
example with his attention to detail, empowered his staff to resolve matters, created and
fostered a genuine team atmosphere, and most of all, continuously displayed a work ethic that
was second to none; and
Whereas, Rick was an extremely dedicated employee who is meticulous in any task he
completes – you could always count on him to go the extra distance to get a job done, staying
late and coming in early, on the weekends, in or across divisional/departmental lines; and
Whereas, Rick took Responsive, Quality, and Collaboration to heart as he coordinated with
police, fire, engineering, and community development on a routine basis to ensure a thorough
resolution of requests and concerns; and
Whereas, Rick will now devote his attention to more important matters of family, friends
and travel, including considerably more time at his cabin as he relaxes with a fishing rod in his
hand or a rifle on his shoulder; and
Whereas, Rick’s generosity, quick wit, and broad smile will be deeply missed by those who
had the pleasure to work with him on a daily basis;
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 Rick Kiefer for his great contributions
and more than 29 years of dedicated service to the City of St. Louis Park and wish him the best
in his retirement.
