Vote of thanks to Retiring Mayor

Minutes:

Councillor A Hopgood congratulated and offered her best wishes to the new Mayor and Deputy Mayor. She then offered the vote of thanks to the retiring Mayor/Mayoress Councillor A Simpson and Mrs J Simpson who took on the role without the experience of being Deputy Mayor and carried out the role with pride and dignity and embraced the role.

 

Councillor A Simpson was one of the first members she met who was very kind and supportive. He carried out his duties superbly and represented the City of Durham. On behalf of Charter Trustees, she thanked the Retiring Mayor and Mayoress for their service.

 

The Mayor advised Trustees that the past Mayor Jewels would be presented at a future meeting of the Trust.
