HONORING BOB PALMOSINA ON HIS RETIREMENT
(Mr. DELUZIO asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. DELUZIO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the service of my
friend, Bob Palmosina, who retired last week after more than 8 years as
the public works manager for Collier Township.
Before this role, Bob worked for more than 30 years in public works
for the city of Pittsburgh and for Allegheny County. Collier is a
growing municipality in my congressional district, and Bob led the
Public Works Department to take care of a bunch of things: Clearing the
roads from snow, road repairs, maintenance of parks and fields and
courts, street signs, crosswalks, picking up leaves, and a heck of a
lot more.
Public service is not for the weak of heart. The work and the hours
can be grueling. Bob always remained focused and committed to his work
and the shared prosperity of our community.
Bob continues to serve on the Allegheny County Council, and he is a
dedicated coach and mentor to so many youth athletes in our area. I
thank him for his service and wish him good luck in his next chapter.
