City of North Augusta’s Post

Congratulations to our Employee of the Quarter for quarter 2 Dottie Price! Mrs. Price has been a shining example of employee dedication since 1998. Her determination to do what’s best for the agency and the city, rather than what’s best for her, is a rare quality in the modern work force. Rarely calls out, keeps up morale, and never complains without extreme cause. Mrs. Price is rarely seen behind her console but her calm voice has helped soothe many thousands of citizens over her 26 years of service, many of whom are experiencing the worst day of their life. Recently, with Public Safety being shorthanded in dispatch, Mrs. Price has more than carried her weight picking up extra shifts to ensure that the citizens of this city receive the best public service possible. Despite being a senior employee with Public Safety, she works her overtime shifts and NEVER complains. Always with a polite smile on her face, Mrs. Price is the “golden egg” of employees and The City of North Augusta is extremely lucky to have her on their side. For these reasons and many more, Mrs. Price more than deserves to recognized as the employee of the quarter.

Congratulations to our Employee of the Quarter Brian Maleck! Brian is instrumental in assisting the department through changes and growth of the City. With staff changes, increased burdens from new development and also assisting with oversight of local city projects, Brian continues to step up to the challenges. He managed the staff transition process efficiently and with great attention. Brian took the time to study the previous documentation and process of engineering inspection and then put together a streamlined approach that is currently making things more efficient. During that process, Brian was also involved in a lot of extra field work and inspection himself, in addition to managing City funded projects that were taking place at the same time. Since then, Brian continues to be effective in overseeing that aspect of the department and continuing in training of new staff members as well as recognizing and implementing additional training as required. Brian continues to assist the city with many other issues as they arise and is deserving of recognition.

We would like to congratulate the most recent group of promotions in our Public Safety Department. Their willingness to serve and protect doesn't go unnoticed and we are excited to see them excel in their new roles.

We hated to lose Randy DuTeau, STS, TMP, LEC in our North Augusta Parks, Recreation, and Tourism department, but our loss is Mooresville CVB's gain. I'm proud to serve in an organization that develops leaders in our industry. Best of luck Randy!
