Shawn Gooch: effective public servant and nice guy

I hate to just regurgitate news reported elsewhere, but I want to call your attention to today's RGJ article about Shawn Gooch, He's a civil engineer working for the city of Sparks, and the city is honoring him for his work in preparing a report about the Sparks Marina that satisfied Federal Emergency Management Agency flood control requirements. The accomplishment saves home owners from having to purchase flood insurance.

The city gave Gooch a day off, $500 and a city coffee cup.

I just think it's nice to see good news about a public employee for once. Besides, I worked with Shawn in another lifetime, and he was a really nice guy.
