                         HON. GEORGE RADANOVICH

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, December 5, 2006

  Mr. RADANOVICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Pat Kuhn for 
her exceptional service on the Oakdale City Council from 1992 to 1994 
and as Mayor of Oakdale from 1994 to 2006.
  During her tenure as Mayor, Miss Kuhn set an example for surrounding 
communities with her emphasis on public safety, education, and anti-
graffiti laws. In 1996, Mayor Kuhn was appointed by then Governor Pete 
Wilson to the California Commission of Teacher Credentialing, a 
position that required Senate Confirmation, and was responsible for 
accrediting state colleges and setting education criteria for the 
teaching professionals for the State of California.
  Mayor Kuhn has been honored for her contributions by the State of 
California and her community through her designation as ``Woman of the 
Year'' by the California Assembly and by receiving the Rotary Paul 
Harris Fellow in 2005.
  Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Mayor Pat Kuhn for her many years of 
commitment and dedication. I urge my colleagues to join me in wishing 
her years of continued happiness and success.
