The annual “Strongest Link” Award is given to a deserving employee who embodies the City’s standards for excellence and strengthens our link on the chain philosophy, has a positive attitude toward work responsibilities, co-workers, customers, serves as a role model for others, is productive, exhibits commitment to quality in carrying out job responsibilities, and is an asset to the staff of her/his department. The recipient is willing to take initiative and accepts and carries out additional responsibilities beyond regular job assignments,and is consistently dependable and punctual in reporting for duty, completing assignments on time, and participating in additional responsibilities. The award recognizes that all City employees link together to form a chain that provides the residents of the City with excellent service. That service is only as strong as its weakest link in the chain. Therefore, all employees should strive to be a “strong link” in the chain. Nominations are received from any City employee and are voted by Department Directors. The recognized employee receives two days off with pay, a $100 American Express gift card, and a “Strongest Link” plaque.
