achievements of those businesses which substantially contribute to the
economic vitality of their communities and the entire Empire State; and
WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its long-
standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to commend

the 2016 Franchise 500 rankings from ENTREPRENEUR Magazine; for seven
years, this dynamic company has been included in the Magazine's Top 10
List, continually standing out in a group of more than 951 franchises
which have qualified for inclusion on the list; and

ria, objective and quantifiable measures of a franchise operation; the
most important factors include financial strength and stability, growth
rate and size of the organization; and
WHEREAS, The Magazine also considers the number of years a company has
been in business and the length of time it has been franchising, startup
costs, litigation, percentage of terminations and whether the business
provides financing; and
WHEREAS, SERVPRO strives to always deliver superior support to its
franchisees, and in turn its customers; one of its franchises, SERVPRO
of Buffalo/Tonawanda, New York, provides 24-hour emergency service to
the communities of Buffalo, Tonawanda, Grand Island, and Kenmore, as
well as Niagara Falls, New York; and
WHEREAS, Under the luminous leadership of owner Patricia Sullivan,
SERVPRO of Buffalo/Tonawanda is also dedicated to being faster to any
size disaster by employing highly trained technicians who can immediate-
ly respond to any residential or commercial emergency; and
WHEREAS, The steadfast and highly skilled technicians at SERVPRO of
Buffalo/Tonawanda are committed to excellence and pride themselves on
properly cleaning and restoring a customer's house so that it feels like
home again; and
WHEREAS, It is with great pleasure that this Legislative Body acknowl-
edges this exceptional business and its contributions to the local and
State economies, fully confident that it will continue to enjoy the
sparkling successes it has experienced thus far; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
commend SERVPRO upon the occasion of being named the best restoration
services company for the 13th consecutive time by ENTREPRENEUR Magazine;
and be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be tran-
