Lilburn City Council accepts resignation, thanks Captain Rob Worley for three decades of service

The Lilburn City Council on Monday accepted the resignation of Captain Rob Worley and recognized his roughly 30 years of service to the city.

Unidentified Speaker announced the resignation, saying, “And tonight, we are sad to receive the resignation from captain Rob Worley.” Council members and other speakers recounted Worley’s tenure with the department and his leadership role. One speaker said Worley “rose through the ranks to achieve the position of police captain over operations” and praised his “professionalism, integrity, and a steadfast” commitment to the community.

Council members thanked Worley for his service and noted he will remain available for contract work. Speaker 4 stated, “He's gonna help us out doing some contract work,” signaling the city expects limited continued involvement rather than a full departure.

The recognition did not include a formal vote beyond the agenda’s routine approvals. The city did not provide personnel‑file details, and no successor or interim assignment was announced at the meeting.
