  Mr. STARK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to Robert (Bob) 
Harrison Glaze. Bob Glaze served honorably on the City Council of San 
Leandro, California from 1984 to 2004. He was the youngest Vice Mayor 
in the city's history.
  Bob Glaze was born in Oakland, California, and moved to San Leandro 
in 1963. He is a graduate of Chabot College and Marina High School, 
where he served as Athletic Commissioner and Curriculum Council member.
  Alameda County and the San Leandro community have benefited from 
Bob's activism and commitment to make a positive difference. During his 
tenure on the San Leandro City Council, he served on a variety of 
Council Committees, including Finance, the Cherry Festival, Quality of 
Life, School Liaison, Revenue Sharing, Long Range Fire Planning, School 
Safety, Technology and Policy.
  Bob is an Alameda County Fire Commissioner and an alternate member of 
the Alameda County Transportation Committee, Alameda County Waste 
Management Authority, Association of Bay Area Governments and the 
Congestion Management Authority. He is a member of the governing board 
of the Associated Community Action Program and the Alameda County 
Training and Employment Program.
  His community service extends far and wide. He continues to be active 
in all areas of Scouting, serving as Scoutmaster, Merit Badge 
Counselor, District Committee Member, District Finance Chairman, 
District Chairman as well as Exploring North Commissioner. He was 1993 
Scout Jamboree Selection Chairman. Other organizations that have 
benefited from Bob's leadership include Washington Home Owners 
Association, Washington Manor Lions' Club, San Leandro Human Resource 
Commission and the Optimist Club of San Leandro.
  Bob Glaze is truly an involved and model citizen. His commitment is 
exemplary. I join the citizens of San Leandro who will pay tribute to 
him on his retirement from the City Council and thank him for his 
countless contributions.
