                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. ELISE M. STEFANIK

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, January 18, 2018

  Ms. STEFANIK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Captain 
Michael Scott on his retirement from the Gloversville Police Department 
after 16 years of service.
  Since starting with the Gloversville Police Department in 2000, 
Captain Scott has been instrumental to the Department's growth and 
success. After serving as a patrol officer, police sergeant, and 
administrative sergeant, he attained the rank of police captain in 
2016. To name just a few of his important contributions to the 
Department, Captain Scott oversaw the implementation of body worn 
cameras, energy device programs, and the transition of the department 
from the Uniform Crime Report to the Incident Based Reporting system. 
One of Captain Scott's proudest accomplishments is serving in the role 
of Accreditation Manager in the NYS Law Enforcement Accreditation 
program that the Department earned for five years. Captain Scott also 
held the position of public information officer, where he handled media 
requests, distributed press releases, and more. A true public servant, 
Captain Scott served in the Navy and the National Guard prior to his 
career in the Gloversville Police Department, which included deployment 
in Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2003.
  On behalf of New York's 21st District, I would like to thank Captain 
Scott for his years of hard work and dedication to his community, and 
wish him all the best in the years ahead.
