Document has been reformatted to meet World Wide Web specifications.)                 A senate RESOLUTION   to recognize and honor Yvonda Bean, Chief executive officer of COlumbia Housing, and to wish her continued success and happiness as she leaves to become the chief executive Officer of the Indianapolis Housing Authority.
  Whereas, the South Carolina Senate has learned that Yvonda Bean will depart from her role as the chief executive officer (CEO) of Columbia Housing in order to take up the mantle as the chief executive officer of the Indianapolis Housing Agency in Indianapolis, Indiana, on February 17, 2025;
and   Whereas, Ms.
Bean came to Columbia Housing in August 2019 as the chief operating officer and ascended to the CEO position in June 2022;
and   Whereas, under her leadership at Columbia Housing, Oak Terrace and Oak Park were constructed on the site of the former Gonzales Gardens community, and Haven at Palmer Point was constructed at Two Notch and Carter streets in Columbia, adding four hundred thirty-five new housing units to the City of Columbia and Richland County;
and   Whereas, through a unique partnership with Midlands Technical College, Columbia Housing now enrolls and graduates residents in degree programs and certificate programs at no cost to most of them and at low cost to others;
and   Whereas, during Ms.
Bean's tenure, Columbia Housing helped forty citizens to buy homes and become homeowners for the first time;
and   Whereas, the South Carolina Senate values the contributions that Yvonda Bean has made to Columbia Housing, to the City of Columbia, and to Richland County and the impact that her work has had on the lives of so many, and the members wish her much success in all her future endeavors.
Now, therefore,   Be it resolved by the Senate:
  That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, recognize and honor Yvonda Bean, chief executive officer of Columbia Housing, and wish her continued success and happiness as she leaves to become the chief executive officer of the Indianapolis Housing Authority.
  Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Yvonda Bean.
