In City Hall

Wednesday’s meeting of Northumberland County council was one of two set aside annually to include staff long-service awards on the agenda.

This occasion recognizes staff members who have reached service milestones in five-year increments.
“Your dedication to this organization over the years has made an impact and, for that, we are grateful,” Warden Brian Ostrander said.

“Our successes are made possible because of the collaboration among all of you.”

Ostrander said he is often witness to “the exceptional service and professionalism that our staff consistently deliver. Even in the face of challenges, you remain resilient, and that perseverance is something you should take pride in.”

“I want you to know that your dedication and passion for your roles have not gone unnoticed,” Chief Administrative Officer Jennifer Moore said as she prepared to hand out the awards.

Five-year recognitions were awarded to three staffers from Community and Social Services, four from Public Works, and two each from Corporate Services, Information Technology and the Golden Plough Lodge.

Honoured for 10 years of service were four members of Northumberland Paramedics, three GPL staffers, two from Public Works, and one each from IT and Economic Development, Planning and Strategic Initiatives.

Fifteen-year honours were accorded two four paramedics, two staffers each from GPL and Community and Social Services, and one each from Public Works and Finance.

One paramedic was honoured for 20 years, and another for 25. Also honoured for 25 years of service was an Economic Development staffer.

Rounding out the honours was a staffer who has worked for 35 years at the Plough.

Recognitions went out as well to four recent retirees, with records of service ranging up to 25 years.

“For those of you who are retiring, your legacy as ambassadors for Northumberland County is truly appreciated,” Moore said.

“Whatever path you choose, the positive impact you have made on this community will endure for many years to come.”
