Village of Westmont
Date Issued: June 23, 2017
At the Westmont Village Board Meeting on June 22, Mayor Ron Gunter presented the Key To The Village to Steven Lin from TECO-Chicago. The Village Board also approved a proclamation honoring Lin for his commitment to building a strong relationship between the Village of Westmont and TECO. Lin has also been a strong supporter of Westmont’s Sister City initiative. Lin served as the Administrative Director for TECO Chicago for the past 6 years and is now returning to Taiwan for his next official assignment.
“This is indeed a great honor to be here to accept this,” said Lin, who has been a diplomat for Taiwan for the past 20 years. “A few years ago, our government decided to set up a TECO cultural center in Chicago’s suburbs. I’m glad that we made the right choice, a brilliant choice, to build the cultural center in Westmont. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your support and friendship.”
The Village of Westmont thanks Steven for his time and dedication, and we wish him great success on his next assignment.
