The City of Prince Rupert has begun to wind down the year, hosting its annual civic recognition event last week at the Highliner Plaza, with the Mayor, Councillor and civic officials paying tribute to the over 259 full and part time workers that keep the city moving.

That number recorded in the City's Annual Report of June, which provided a snap shot of just how far reaching that the duties of the civic work force are.

Last Wednesday, Thirty one civic employees were recognized for varying levels of service, eighteen of whom were in attendance at the reception to receive their awards from City of Prince Rupert managers and to hear from Mayor Lee Brain.

Of the list of thirty one, five were honoured for 30 years or more of service to the City.

Franca Miele -- 35 years
Paul Anderson -- 30 years
Christine Desautels -- 30 years
Jose Soares -- 30 years
Tina Stewart -- 30 years

The City of Prince Rupert has posted a photo array of all of those to receive recognition at the event, which you can review here.
