                     HONORING SUPERVISOR DAN MILLER

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. DOUG LaMALFA

                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, October 14, 2022

  Mr. LaMALFA. Madam Speaker, today I rise to recognize the three-
decade spanning public service career of retiring Nevada County 
Supervisor Dan Miller. Supervisor Miller has served the people of 
Nevada County in many roles, from his time on the City Council of Grass 
Valley, to his recent time as a County Supervisor. His vision has 
always been to implement common sense solutions to local government 
issues. Dan is a policy guy, with a rich wealth of knowledge on nearly 
every issue topic.
  Dan moved to Grass Valley, California with his family in 1962. He 
went on to graduate from Nevada Union High School, Sierra College, and 
earned a BA from California State University, Sacramento. Dan went into 
the insurance business. His community involvement included announcing 
Nevada Union High School football games on the local radio station, 
KNCO. I share Dan's passion for our local sports teams the San 
Francisco Giants and San Francisco 49ers, the ``correct California'' 
teams.
  Dan served on the Grass Valley City Council for 16 years and two 
separate times as Mayor. He was a Grass Valley Planning Commissioner 
for four years and served on the Nevada Joint High School District 
Board of Trustees for four years. He was elected Nevada County 
Supervisor for eight years, serving as Chair three times. During his 
time as a Supervisor, Dan also served on the Regional Housing Authority 
(RHA), Nevada County's Local Area Formation Commission (LAFCo), and the 
Rural County Representatives of California (RCRC), where he has served 
as the 2022 Chair.
  Throughout his many years of public service, Dan's proudest 
achievement was implementing the Dorsey Drive Freeway interchange, the 
modernization of the City's Fire Department, working to bring more than 
200 units of affordable housing into Nevada County, and helping to 
ignite broadband expansion initiatives that will continue to benefit 
Nevada County residents into the future.
  Dan and his wife Roxanne, have three children--Lisa, Sonia, and 
Brendon--and four grandchildren. Outside of his long career and his 
outstanding service to the community, he enjoys playing golf and 
traveling. I wish Dan well in his retirement to the great state of 
Arkansas, and thank him for his many years of dedicated public service 
and leadership in Nevada County. He will be missed.
