         HONORING RETIRING CONCORD TOWN SUPERVISOR MARK STEFFAN

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. BRIAN HIGGINS

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, December 7, 2005

  Mr. HIGGINS. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to honor a man whose years of 
service, both as a councilman, and for the last 4 years as Supervisor 
of the town of Concord, have served his town admirably. Today, I want 
to honor retiring Concord Town Supervisor Mark Steffan.
  Mark Steffan is someone who loved his town with every fiber of his 
being. A successful businessman, Mark was elected to the Concord Town 
Board and his recent service as Supervisor has come at a time when more 
people in Erie County and western New York look to the town of Concord 
and its incorporated village of Springville as an outstanding place to 
live, work and raise a family. It is that way because of the dedicated 
service of public officials like Mark Steffan.
  Mark Steffan and his family are moving on with a planned move out of 
western New York. I want to take this opportunity, Mr. Speaker, to 
commend Mark Steffan for his service to the residents and the taxpayers 
of

the Town of Concord, and remind him that local residents are better for 
the service he provided to town government.
