En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia Senate, not a change to any law. It commends Braselton Police Chief Terry Esco, who is retiring in March after 35 years with the department. The resolution recounts his career: hired in 1990, promoted to chief in 1991, and credited with growing the department to 23 officers as the town expanded into four counties. It also notes his roles as a GACP All-Hazard Council Representative and President of the Gwinnett Police Chiefs Association. The resolution formally commends Chief Esco's service and directs the Secretary of the Senate to give him a copy of the resolution. It has no regulatory effect and does not alter any Georgia statute.
