It was an emotional evening for long-time city employee Valerie Miles, who is retiring to spend more time with her family. Miles started with the city in 1996, where she worked as a police dispatcher before spending time at the airport, the water department, and eventually in the treasurer’s office. 

Miles says that going into the city treasurer position was extremely difficult but rewarding.  She credits her support system for setting her up for success. 

Miles also credits new Treasurer Crystal Nichols for her help and says the city is in good hands with her at the helm.

As far as moving forward, Miles says she will be spending time with family both here and in Florida. We here at Regional Radio News salute you, Valerie Miles, for your dedication and years of service!
