  Mr. HUDSON. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to honor Concord City Manager 
W. Brian Hiatt on nearly two decades of service to the City of Concord, 
North Carolina.
  I've known Brian for many years, and throughout this time I have 
considered him a good friend. A lifelong North Carolina resident, Brian 
attended Appalachian State University for his Bachelor of Science in 
History and Government Service and went on to attend the University of 
North Carolina at Chapel Hill to receive his Master of Public 
Administration. After his education, Brian spent almost 20 years 
working for both Guilford County and the City of Hickory where he 
gained valuable experience that enabled him as City Manager to help 
shape the City of Concord into the wonderful place it is today.
  Over the years, Brian has been very active in our community serving 
on the boards of Cabarrus Economic Development Corporation and the 
Water and Sewer Authority of Cabarrus County, NC League of 
Municipalities, Hospice of Cabarrus County and Cabarrus County United 
Way. He is a Past-President of the Concord Rotary Club, where he was 
named Rotarian of the Year in 2012, Lake Hickory Rotary Club and the 
North Carolina City, County Management Association and Academic 
Learning Center.
  Residing in Concord, Brian is married to Julie, and they have two 
grown children, Andrew and Erin. I am extremely grateful for Brian's 
service to our community and I wish him continued success.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me today in honoring my friend City Manager 
W. Brian Hiatt for his unwavering commitment to public service.
