“In 1980 I was hired as a temporary, part-time employee with the department,” Mills said. “42 years later I’m ending up with a great career and a great place to work. I’ve been blessed to make many relationships and friendships with the different people throughout the city, citizens as well as the ones I’ve worked with.”

In a resolution before the council, Mayor Ricky Shelton said that the city extends its sincere appreciation to Mills for his valuable service, and sends him well-wishes in his retirement.
