MANAGER’S
COMMENTS
During the Virginia
Association of Counties annual meeting on November 13, 2007, there were a
number of compliments to Henrico County on returning to office all of the
members of its Board of Supervisors.
Each member of the Board will be serving an additional four years, which
is a result of the health and strength of the County that has been expressed by
the citizens in an overwhelming fashion.
A reputation and a legend are beginning to occur because this Board will
continue as the longest sitting elected body in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Congratulations and thanks to the members for
what they have done in the past and will be doing for the citizens in the
future.
Mary G. Shaia, a resident of the Three Chopt
District, was introduced as the 2007 Henrico Christmas Mother. Joining her were the Chair and Co-Chair of
the County Government Christmas Mother program, Barbara Poole of the County Manager’s
Office and Lisa Orlosky of the Department of
Information Technology. Mrs. Shaia thanked the County for all of its support. Last year, the Henrico Christmas Mother
program served over 1,500 families, 2,600 children, and 650 disabled elderly
and adults. The program began taking
applications on November 12 and will begin serving its recipients in
December. Mrs. Shaia
looks forward to help from Mrs. Poole and Mrs. Orlosky
and to their tremendous energy and enthusiasm.
