                        Wednesday, April 6, 2005

  Mr. CUELLAR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Hays County 
Commissioner Will Conley for his contributions to the community.
  Will Conley was born in Lake Charles, Louisiana and then went on to 
attend high school in Houston, Texas. After graduating from high 
school, Conley spent one year ranching and outfitting in Uvalde, Texas 
before attending Southwest Texas State University in San Marcos. During 
his college tenure, Conley was involved in the Student Body Council, 
South West Texas Ducks Unlimited and Pi Sigma Alpha. Conley graduated 
in 2000 with a degree in Political Science and a minor in Business.
  After receiving his bachelor's degree, Will demonstrated his 
entrepreneurship abilities when he founded Conley Enterprise 
Incorporated and the environmentally conscious business of Conley 
Carwash and Detail. It was working with Conley Carwash and Detail that 
Will's concern for the environment shown through with the company's 
policy of recycling 85 percent of the water used for operations. Over 
the years, Conley's companies have received numerous awards for 
environmental-soundness such as the Water Efficiency Achievement Award.
  After producing great results as an entrepreneur, Conley became the 
youngest elected County Commissioner of Hays County in 2004. As County 
Commissioner, Conley has promised to work for the improvement of Hays 
County by focusing on economic development and instilling a more 
fiscally responsible policy when it comes to the appropriating of tax 
payer's dollars. During his short time in office, he has already shown 
the results he has been known for; he has improved road conditions, 
extended park development and done so much for the better of Hays 
County.
  Mr. Speaker, Will Conley has a rare youthful spirit that is dedicated 
to improving Hays County's quality of life for its citizens and I feel 
greatly privileged to recognize his accomplishments.
