  Mr. OBERNOLTE. Madam Speaker, I rise today in recognition of Bill 
Holland, who is completing his final term with the Hesperia City 
Council. Bill has dedicated a lifetime of public service to Hesperia, 
serving twelve years on the Hesperia City Council, including as Mayor, 
22 years with the San Bernardino County Sheriff Department, and 5 years 
with the Hesperia Unified School District Police Department.
  As Mayor Pro Tem of Hesperia, Bill served on the Board of 
Commissioners for the Victory Valley Wastewater Reclamation Authority, 
where he advocated for the protection of public health and the 
environment for the residents and businesses of the Mojave River 
Valley. He has also served on the Governing Board at the Mojave Desert 
Air Quality Management District and the San Bernardino 
CountyTransportation Authority Board of Directors, where he fought for 
policies that would support this growing rural city.
  In addition to his extensive years of public service, Bill has a 
strong commitment to his family. He is married to his high school 
sweetheart, Lynnette and together they have raised their 3 children in 
Hesperia. They are the proud grandparents of 8. I would like to thank 
Bill for his remarkable career of public service and wish him all the 
best in this new chapter of his life.
