RECOMMENDATION TO COMMITTEE
That the report of the Manager Human Resources concerning John Glover's impending retirement be RECEIVED.
REPORT PURPOSE
To officially inform Council of John Glover's retirement on 31 August 1998.
BACKGROUND
Mr John Glover joined the City of Stirling on 26 April 1965 as a Technical Officer in the Planning Department. In 1972 John was appointed City Planning Officer to manage the Planning Department. Although he has remained in this position since 1972, the position title has changed on many occasions to reflect many organisational changes that have occurred during this period of time. Currently as Executive Manager, Community Development, John is responsible for the Leisure Services, Community Services, Building, Health and Planning Departments.
Over the last thirty-three years, John has proved to be a dedicated employee always performing his role at a very high level and providing leadership to staff within his division.
John now believes it is time to enjoy life more and therefore has decided to retire effective 31 August 1998. Although John would have preferred to have resigned on his 60th birthday on the 20 June 1998 he agreed to postpone his retirement until the return of his long time colleague Mr Stuart Johnson who is currently on long service leave and due to return in August 1998.
John leaves the City of Stirling after making an excellent contribution at a Senior Management level.
Well done John.
At 3.08pm Councillor Camilleri arrived at the meeting during consideration of Item CS2.
