Mr. McDOWELL. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize an incredible public servant from my district.

After more than three decades of service to the city of Kannapolis, Mr. Mike Legg is beginning his well-earned retirement.

Mike began working for Kannapolis in 1995, earning the community's respect and trust. In 2004, he was appointed city manager, a post which he has stewarded for more than two decades, growing the city, bringing life to the community, and carrying the torch on the downtown revitalization and continued development of the North Carolina Research Campus.

Madam Speaker, Mike's hard work has helped make Kannapolis home for the city's more than 50,000 residents. I thank him for his many contributions to our community. I know he won't be far from the action, but I wish him a long and joyous retirement.
