Lamorinda Weekly reporter honored for dedication to accuracy and in-depth reporting

By Jennifer Wake

Pippa Fisher

After nearly five years serving as the Lafayette city reporter for Lamorinda Weekly - and always one of the last people sitting in the back taking notes during city council meetings - Pippa Fisher, who announced her retirement from the paper in late March, was presented with a proclamation by members of the Lafayette City Council during its April 12 meeting thanking her for her hard work and dedication to making complex issues understandable.

"Journalism and professional (trustworthy) media/press is in my opinion, the most important pillar of public governance. What the Lamorinda Weekly and Pippa have done for our city is beyond words," Council Member Cam Burks wrote about Fisher in an email. "I for one am extraordinarily grateful to them both for what they continue to provide to our constituents and fellow neighbors; even in our world filled with so many ways to communicate, more people look for that color newspaper in their driveway every other Tuesday night, than I could ever imagine."

City Council members offered their thanks to Fisher, which coincidentally happened toward the end of the meeting. Council Member Gina Dawson ended her comments with an apology to Fisher: "Sorry to keep you to the bitter end."
