Kotlinski recognized for decade of service

The Town of Annetta held their city council meeting Thursday, Feb. 15, and it was a very special meeting for one of its most tenured staff members. 

Diana Kotlinski was recognized for 10 years of outstanding service. Her recognized greeting, “It’s a great day in Annetta”, has been received by every citizen, patron, and contractor that has called over the last 10 years.

Kotlinski was given a standing ovation by all in attendance and presented with a 10-year service plaque by Mayor Sandy Roberts.

Upon presenting the plaque, Roberts reminded folks how Kotlinski started out part-time for a couple years before going full-time. She noted Kotlinski is a great asset and everyone that calls up loves to talk to her, calling her a wonderful representative for the town of Annetta.
