In January 2022, County Manager Taco Pope, instituted new Customer Care Standards to govern both internal and external interactions and to create a more positive work environment. Part of this initiative includes an Employee Recognition Program in which employees can nominate co-workers who have demonstrated Nassau County's Customer Care Standards and/or has provided exceptional performance beyond established duties and responsibilities.
We are excited to announce that our next Employee of the Quarter is Pat Gilroy. Pat has worked for Nassau County for 24 years and is currently serving as a Plans Review Specialist in our Development Services Division. In this position, Pat provides complex professional work to ensure proper application of civil engineering principles and techniques for the department. This includes writing construction plans for the Development Review Engineer's consideration; meeting with developers and staff to discuss proposed projects; ensuring proper permits and bonds are obtained prior to new development acceptance by the County; and processing of all variance requests and abandonment applications.
Pat continually goes above and beyond with employees, customers and residents anytime the opportunity arises. Most recently, Pat was recently found assisting a pair of citizens who were struggling to unload items from their vehicle. A true public servant, Pat never hesitates to help someone in need and his service to the community does not go unnoticed. We appreciate everything Pat does not only for the County government, but also for the residents he serves.
Congratulations Pat and thank you for a job well done!
