Certificate of Commendation
In 1980 the Manhattan Beach Police Department implemented a program whereby the Department would recognize outstanding efforts of police officers and encourage motivation and morale by naming an “Officer of the Year;” and Nominees must be sworn officers of any rank and must maintain an outstanding attitude and professional demeanor; and
The distinction and honor of being named “2021 Officer of the Year” recently went to Police Sergeant Michael Lynch, who has shown the professional qualities that render outstanding police officers, the expertise, the courage, the patience, and the ability to perform a duty which at times seems impossible; and Michael’s performance stands out among his peers; and
The City Council wishes to recognize Police Sergeant Michael Lynch for being designated “Officer of the Year” and for doing such an outstanding job for the Police Department and the community.
Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved that I, Steve Napolitano, Mayor of the City of Manhattan Beach, California , on behalf of the City Council and the residents of Manhattan Beach, do hereby commend
Police Sergeant Michael Lynch
for his outstanding contribution to the Manhattan Beach Police Department and to the community.
Dated this 21
