April Employee of the Month
On behalf of the City Council and staff, please join me in congratulating APRIL City of Milton-Freewater Employee of the Month—Tim Smock.
Tim joined our City team as a Parks Maintenance Worker in January of 2000 and later took to the neighborhoods of our City as a Sanitation Truck Driver. His home department is Public Works, and sometimes because of his valuable certifications, you will still see Tim spraying weeds on public property.
This nomination comes from a local citizen that asked if there was a way Tim could be recognized and so a letter was written and submitted to the City.
In the letter it was stated that Jackie Lazott, living at 418 Willow since 1994, thinks the City’s “truck driver” as she calls him, is the best! She said he dumps the large garbage can, but if anything falls out, he gets out of his truck and picks it all up so nothing is left at the curb.
Jackie said that she watches him from the window and he will look for her and when he sees her, he smiles. On many a day, this is the only interaction with another human she has. Jackie thinks very highly of Tim and is sure he performs at this level throughout the City.
This winter was a little more than Jackie could handle on occasion, so she signed up for help to get her large garbage can to the curb. Jackie let him know that if the driveway was clear, she was perfectly capable of getting this can to the curb herself, but Tim insisted that he just take care of it for her.
Jackie is here tonight to support Tim in receiving this award.
Congratulations Tim and thanks for your service to the citizens of Milton-Freewater.
