Retirement of City Manager Bob Moncur
His Worship, Mayor Derek R.
Corrigan announced the retirement of City Manager, Bob Moncur, and gave the
following address:
“Now I’d like to move on to
an announcement that is very significant to Council, staff and all of our
citizens: after 30 years of exceptional
service to our city, City Manager, Bob Moncur, has announced his
retirement.
As all Burnaby city staff
and the citizens of Burnaby know, Bob is an exemplary leader. It is under
his guidance, direction and stewardship that our City, over the past 30 years,
has grown to become a thriving metropolis that has been recognized as the
best-run city in Canada and has received innumerable additional honours that
speak to Burnaby’s many enviable attributes achieved with Bob at the helm.
I know that Bob is stepping
away from his role as Burnaby’s City Manager with mixed emotions, as he is
leaving behind a city that – in large part because of his leadership – is
vibrant, welcoming and financially sound, but he is also saying farewell to
exceptional staff and colleagues who have worked alongside him to ensure the
City’s plans come to fruition. Together with staff, citizens and councils –
many councils, in fact (and three mayors, I believe!) – Bob has been a leader
and steward in the building of a city that offers exceptional services to
citizens, while protecting green space and keeping taxes low.
It’s not surprising that
Bob says that he has found his career here to be personally and professionally
rewarding: he has achieved great success and formed many strong personal
relationships that we know he’ll take with him when he retires. What is also
noteworthy, however, is that he doesn’t take credit for the work he has done.
He always attributes the City’s many successes to the councils, staff and
citizens who he’s worked with to realize Burnaby’s goals and aspirations. And
he often speaks of the great pleasure he has found in working with exceptional
people throughout his career.
Bob says that his personal
success is firmly rooted in his practice of hiring competent people, mentoring
them, then letting them loose to do what they were hired to do. I think that,
reflecting on Bob’s 30 years of success, Council can claim the same sort of
victory. Our success over many years has much to do with hiring Bob.
Bob’s last day in the Manager’s
chair will be February 29.
I, personally, am going to
miss Bob’s presence here at the City, along with his advice and leadership –
and I know that Burnaby staff and citizens will miss him, too. So tonight – as
we will do several times over the next few months as various groups wish Bob
well and celebrate his achievements – please join me and Burnaby City Council
in wishing Bob the very best in his retirement. While we will miss his
day-to-day leadership, we will continue to enjoy and build upon its
outcomes. On behalf of staff, citizens and Council, thank you, Bob, for
your dedication to the City of Burnaby and for the invaluable legacy your
leadership leaves with us. We wish you a wonderful retirement.”
Council voiced its deepest
appreciation for Mr. Moncur and recognized his key role in many of Burnaby’s
successes over the years. Council shared the sentiment that his guidance,
wisdom and support would be greatly missed, but wished him all the best in his
retirement.
Bob Moncur, City Manager
Mr. Moncur provided
comments on his upcoming retirement, and thanked Council and staff for all of
their hard work, dedication and support.
There were no inquiries brought before
Council at this time.
