delinquent water bills. Holland says he has fond memories of the things the
city has achieved during his term and looks forward to spending time with
family.

all be it, there are some things that have not been accomplished yet, but the
wheels are in motion to get them accomplished and I'm sure in the near future they
will be. Got a brand new grandson that's 3 weeks old right now and I'm going to
spend a lot more time with him. Got a new house down on the lake, I'm going to
spend a lot more time down there and a lot more time in Louisiana."
