Congratulations to Long Range Planning Manager David Smith for being recognized as the August Employee of the Month!
David has served the City of Sarasota for over 25 years. Most recently, following the passing of Dr. Clifford Smith (no relation), David handled all Historic Preservation activities in addition to his regular duties until a new Planner was hired. David took on this increased workload following the back-to-back storms of the 2024 hurricane season, which created an unprecedented volume of Historic Preservation work.
In nominating David for this recognition, a colleague noted his extraordinary work ethic, cheerful demeanor, and willingness to put in extra time to ensure the job gets done right.
Kudos, David, for this well-deserved honor!
