                          TRIBUTE TO KAY MOCHA

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. DAVID YOUNG

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, January 13, 2016

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize and congratulate 
Kay Mocha of Missouri Valley, Iowa, on her retirement as the Director 
of the Pottawattamie County Planning and Development Department. Kay 
has served in that capacity for over 30 years.
  During her tenure Kay has seen a number of changes in the Planning 
and Development Department. Since she was appointed in 1984 the office 
has grown into a full service planning and development department that 
focuses on floodplain management, onsite wastewater treatment and 
disposal, private water wells, and the county's waste transfer station. 
Kay has served with 22 different county board members during her years 
of service.
  Mr. Speaker, I congratulate Kay on her retirement and for her many 
years of dedicated and devoted service to the citizens of Pottawattamie 
County. It is because of Iowans like Kay that I am proud to represent 
our great state in the United States Congress. I ask that my colleagues 
join me in congratulating Kay and in wishing her and her family the 
very best moving forward.

                          ____________________
