City Attorney Marks Ten Years of Service
Mayor Craig Cates and the Key West City Commission this week paid tribute to City Attorney Shawn Smith for a decade of dedicated service.
“He serves the community with honesty and integrity and is a constant professional,” said Cates. “Though he does sometimes like to crack a joke and tease.”
“I appreciate the trust and confidence you have shown me,” said Smith. “It truly is an honor.”
Commissioner and former Judge Richard Payne noted that he watched Smith grow up in Key West and that he urged him to go to law school.
“I’m proud of him,” he said.
Shawn Smith is a great guy in my book. He and his assistants have been very accommodating, cordial and most helpful in clarifying and researching a few issues for me. It has been a pleasure working with him.
