               HONORING A CAREER OF DISTINGUISHED SERVICE

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. LINCOLN DAVIS

                              of tennessee

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, March 19, 2010

  Mr. DAVIS of Tennessee. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor a public 
servant that has dedicated his life to improving and enriching 
communities across the state of Tennessee.
   Lee Holland will retire this June from his position as President of 
the Tennessee Municipal League's Risk Management Pool. For more than 
two decades, Lee has demonstrated integrity, professionalism, and 
efficiency while serving the people of Tennessee. During his tenure, 
TML's Risk Management Pool became the leader in providing insurance and 
risk management to Tennessee's municipalities. The Pool today provides 
a vital public service by insuring over 40,000 public employees and 
over $5.8 billion in municipal property.
   Before starting his career in the insurance industry, Lee served as 
the city manager for Collegedale, Tennessee. Beginning in 1975, his 
stewardship brought revitalization and new industry to a city in 
disarray. If you drive through Collegedale today, you can see for 
yourself the positive impact that Lee brought to the city.
   Today, I am proud to honor Lee Holland's tireless work on behalf of 
the people of Tennessee. He has truly earned not only our respect and 
admiration, but also a well reserved retirement.
