CONGRATULATING MAYFIELD VILLAGE <br />DIRECTOR OF FINANCE RONALD C. WYNNE <br />ON HIS RETIREMENT AND THANKING HIM FOR 15 YEARS <br />OF EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE TO MAYFIELD VILLAGE <br />WHEREAS, in 2009, Ronald C. Wynne was hired by Mayor Bruce G. Rinker as Mayfield Village's <br />Director of Finance; and <br />WHEREAS, before bringing his talent and expertise to Mayfield Village, Ron had worked for over <br />30 years in the private sector as the Vice President and CFO of Arthur Middleton Capital Holdings and as <br />the Senior Vice President and Managing Director at Bowne & Co.; and <br />WHEREAS, the significance of Ron's role as Director of Finance is impossible to define. Ron <br />surpassed traditional expectations, becoming involved in all facets of Village government. His knowledge, <br />experience, demeanor, and wise perspective made his opinions sought after and respected. His ability to <br />refine financial concepts, making them easily understandable, and his willingness to patiently explain <br />them, was appreciated by us all; and <br />WHEREAS, Ron's background made the usual aspects of budgeting and running the Village's <br />finances seem like a walk in the park. With his guidance, the Village passed a much -needed income tax <br />increase in 2010 and, under his watchful eye, the Village's annual revenues more than doubled over the <br />next decade. Debt was reduced from $16 million to $2 million and reserves increased from $2 million to <br />$42 million; and <br />WHEREAS, when the Covid-19 pandemic hit in 2020 and revenues plummeted, Ron made sure that <br />all the work that had gone into making the Village financially secure was not squandered. Because of his <br />continued diligence and leadership, the Village remains financially secure through sound investments and <br />watchful spending; and <br />WHEREAS, Ronald C. Wynne has served the community of Mayfield Village with exceptional <br />passion and dedication for 15 years and, although we are all sorry to see him leave, he deserves an <br />opportunity to enjoy life with his family, kick back, play a round of golf, and raise a glass or two. <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL OF MAYFIELD VILLAGE, OHIO, <br />ON THIS OCCASION OF HIS RETIREMENT, THAT: <br />Director of Finance Ronald C. Wynne is hereby recognized and congratulated for 15 <br />years of exceptional service to Mayfield Village. On behalf of residents, business <br />owners, department heads and staff, we wish him many years of health and <br />happiness with his wonderful wife Debbie, daughter Kelly, son Sean and the newest <br />love of his life, granddaughter Amelia. <br />RESOLUTION ADOPTED: May 20, 2024 -- <br />0 <br />BRENDA T.
