Silent Heroes

Every small town has a silent hero.
That is the city/town clerk.

One doesn’t think about what that
person does. Just that she is there,
to take your complains, walk you thru
the permit system the individual city/town
has. And any other questions you have
about your city/town.

While that person has to come to the job
with some kind of skills, there is so much
more to the job. In fact, I really doubt there
is an accurate detail job description for the job.

That person not only is there in the office to
take care of city/town business, but is also
required to attend meeting with other clerks.
And so many meetings that have something,
even a small amount, to do with your town/city.
They also have to keep up with the State rules,
regulations and new laws.
Most of these clerks put in overtime and hardly
ever put in for the pay to go with it.

So next time you go in to your city/town hall,
Tell the person behind the desk, THANK YOU.
For all you do for our town.

And for the City of Kootenai, that would be
Mary Luzmoor.
So THANK YOU, MARY LUZMOOR, for not
only being there for the Mayor, the Council and
the City of Kootenai, but thank you for all the behind
the scene work you do,like for the Celebration of
Kootenai’s 100th Birthday!!
