  Mr. SWALWELL of California. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Mr. 
Doug Horner on the occasion of his departure from elected office in my 
district.
  Mr. Horner was first appointed to the Livermore City Council in July 
of 2007 and succeeded to a second term in 2009. During his time in 
office, he was twice appointed to serve one year terms as Vice Mayor. 
He has also represented Livermore on a variety of intergovernmental 
agencies, including the League of California Cities East Bay Division, 
the Tri-Valley Transportation Council, the Livermore Pleasanton Fire 
Department Joint Powers Authority, and the Intergovernmental Committee 
with the Livermore Area Recreation and Park District and the Livermore 
Valley Joint Unified School District.
  Prior to serving on the City Council, Mr. Horner was an active member 
of the Livermore Community, having served on the Livermore Planning 
Commission, the Design Review Committee, and the City's General Plan 
Review Committee.
  Mr. Horner's commitment to open space and the viticulture industry 
has helped maintain the character and quality of life of Livermore, 
maintaining the best of aspects of his community for future 
generations.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in thanking Mr. Horner 
for his many years of service to the community and wishing him the best 
in his future endeavors.
