FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
September 4, 2003

Mayor Tom Bates
Statement on the Retirement of Weldon Rucker

           “Weldon is a remarkable public servant who has served the people of Berkeley with a dedication and skill for more than 30 years.  

“The entire Berkeley community will miss his talent, intelligence, and deep appreciation for what makes Berkeley such a special place.  In the nine months since taking office, I have seen his remarkable skills put to use time and time again – from his outstanding work to balance our city budget to his selection of our new police chief.

“Berkeley is a better place because of Weldon’s work.  Without question, his successor will have very large shoes to fill.  On behalf of the entire City Council, I want to express our heartfelt thanks for his years of dedicated service to this City and its people.  We wish him all the best in his retirement.

            “Moving forward, I will work closely with the Council, city staff, and the community to ensure Berkeley government runs smoothly during this transition and as we begin the process of hiring our new City Manager.”
