                             HON. SAM FARR

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, November 19, 2004

  Mr. FARR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Richard Scagliotti, 
whose lifelong dedication to San Benito County consists of many 
volunteer and local government positions. Richard will be stepping down 
as the San Benito County Supervisor for District 1, where he has served 
for 16 years.
  Following in the footsteps of his father, who served San Benito 
County in the early sixties, Richard has served nearly his entire 
public career on the San Benito County Council of Governments and the 
Local Agency Formation Commission. In addition to his work with the San 
Benito Board of Supervisors, Richard has served on the Veteran's 
Memorial Park commission, the Local Transportation Authority, the 
Inter-Governmental Committee and many other local government groups. 
One of his proudest accomplishments was the establishment of the Pajaro 
River Watershed Flood Control Commission in 2000, and has served on the 
Commission ever since.
  Mr. Speaker, I wish to congratulate Richard on his long and honorable 
career and thank him for his contribution to our society. Richard has 
consistently gone above and beyond the roles bestowed upon him, and has 
left a legacy of community leadership. I wish him all the luck in his 
future endeavors.
