Springfield Employee Recognition: Jerry Eger

Eight Springfield Employees were recognized for their service to the Township at a morning “Mugging event” this week.

Township Administrator Anthony Cancro gave eight employees with superlative service records mugs in recognition of their on-the-job achievements. Before presenting the mugs, provided by Investor’s Savings Bank, Cancro spotlighted the how each employee was an asset to the Township, and thanked them each for “making a difference.”

Jerry Eger, a part time construction code official, has worked for Springfield since June of 2012. In that short time, he has overseen two of what are likely to be the last major housing constructions for Springfield: Victory Gardens and Oakwood Homes. In addition to overseeing the projects, Cancro said he has helped to positively reshape the building department. 

"[Eger] has restructured the department to be more user-friendly to the public and contractors," Cancro said.
