2011 Township Employee Service Awards

In times of economic stress, where each dollar is stretched to its maximum capacity to provide quality service to Livingston residents, it is especially important to recognize those employees who are expected to do more work with fewer resources. A Township’s prosperity is measured in the dedication of its staff, the diversity of skills, experience, and willingness to go above and beyond the call of duty.   

There is no greater evidence of the importance and dedication of Township employees than work performed before, during and after Hurricane Irene.  The Livingston Township Employee Service Awards are a small token of thanks, and Livingston Township would like to shine a spotlight of gratitude on this year’s awards recipients who have worked hard in providing a safe and secure community that we can all be proud of.

Haig Zotian is celebrating 50 years of service and Edward Kelly is celebrating 30 years of service.

Celebrating 25 years of service are Scott Harwood and Jay van de Beek. Employees with 20 years of service are Robert Kinsey, Peter McDonald, Joseph Ward, Michael Covello, William Peckholdt, Stuart Lukowiak, Kenneth Hanna, Thomas Paranzine, David Drylie, and Michael Prendergast.
