En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia Senate rather than a change to state law. It recognizes Denney H. Rogers, who has served as mayor of Ephesus, Georgia for 35 years, taking over the post from his father and running unopposed in every election since. The resolution describes his family's history in Ephesus, including a sawmilling business and a home recognized as a Georgia Centennial Farm, and lists his accomplishments as mayor: a library, city hall, fire station, paved roads, ball fields, a community center, and a debt-free water system serving the area. It also notes his service on various local and regional boards. The Senate formally commends him and directs that a copy of the resolution be given to him.
