Body
Whereas, Engineers use their scientific and technical knowledge and skills in creative and innovative ways to fulfill society's needs; and,
 
Whereas, Engineers face the major technological challenges of our time - from rebuilding towns devastated by natural disaster, cleaning up the environment, and assuring safe, clean, and efficient sources of energy, to designing information systems that will speed our country into the future; and,
 
Whereas, Engineers are encouraging our young math and science students to realize the practical power of their knowledge; and,
 
Whereas, we will look more than ever to engineers and their knowledge and skills to meet the challenges of the twenty-first century.
 
Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved, that February 22, 2015 through February 28, 2015 is hereby declared Engineers Week in Rochester Hills. Accordingly, our citizens are encouraged to join in participating in Engineers Week activities and to inspire the next generation of engineers.
