Green Neslen Mr. Chairman Result _ rb I�'I RESOLUTION WHEREAS, SAMUEL CULVER PARK, former Mayor of Salt Lake City, departed this life after a career of exceptional usefulness and service in the community, and WHEREAS, it is fitting that the Board of Commission- ers of Salt Lake City should at this time record its apprecia- tion of the splendid character and worth of Mayor Park, and WHEREAS, his departure is a substantial loss to the City he so well served and a deep sorrow to the Board of Com- missioners and other City officials, all of whom held him in the highest esteem. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board does hereby express its high appreciation of the fine character and public career of Mr. Park. It was his privilege to be the first mayor of the City under the commission form of government. The far reaching character of his progressive work in laying the foundations of the new system will bear fruit for years to come. The results of his work will inure to the benefit of generations yet unborn. The entire citizen- ship of this splendid growing metropolis,to which he devoted his efforts and which he loved so well,will mourn his passing. Salt Lake City is a better city for his having lived and served. The moral tone of the community is higher and stronger because of his efforts. He always advocated obedience to law 1. and order. He stood like adamant against official corruption and civic vice. He will be remembered for his rugged integrity and fearlessness while giving to his constituents an especially ef- ficient business administration. His example may well be follow- ed by all citizens having the welfare of the public at heart. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that these resolutions be spread upon the minutes of this meeting and a copy be tendered to the family of this worthy citizen. • Passed by the Bard of Commissioners of Salt Lake City, Utah, this r day of February, A.
