                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. BILL HUIZENGA

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, June 26, 2017

  Mr. HUIZENGA. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate a longtime 
public servant, Daryl Delabbio, on the occasion of his retirement.
  Daryl has served as Kent County Administrator/Controller since 1998. 
Prior to his time with Kent County, he spent 11 years as Rockford city 
manager. In all, Daryl has dedicated four decades to the people of Kent 
County and the greater Grand Rapids area.
  As Administrator/Controller, Daryl oversaw Kent County's daily 
activities, acted as its chief financial officer and headed project 
management. Under his leadership, Kent County maintained a balanced 
budget and saw the development of Millennium Park and the DeVos Place 
Convention Center. Most importantly, he has led the county in a non-
partisan, fair, and fiscally responsible manner.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in celebrating the career of 
Administrator/Controller Daryl Delabbio for his service to Kent County.
