e . EMPLOYEE OF THE QUARTER JANUARY, FEBRUARY AND MARCH, 1992 Shirley Mosely began her career with the City in 1985 as an intern in the Finance Department. In 1987 she transferred to the Revenue Collections Division as a Customer Service Clerk. In 1988, she was promoted to an Accounting Technician I, where she was responsible for processing Accounts Payable. One year later, Shirley received another promotion to an Accounting Technician II, where her main responsibilities included the reconciliation of bank statements, investments and fixed assets. For the past 18 months, Shirley has been assigned to a project of monitoring our daily cash position to reduce our average daily cash balance at our depository bank to save the City maintenance fee charges and to earn a higher interest rate on funds that could be invested. The result of Shirley's effort is that the city of La Porte is $15,000 richer because of account maintenance fees that were avoided and extra interest earned because of the reduced bank balances. Shirley's goal for 1992 is the implementation of a computerized fixed asset system. Shirley has worked over the past year on updating the fixed asset files. This work effort paid off during the year-end audit where the number of adjustments to our fixed asset records were minimal. Shirley's cheerful and cooperative attitude makes her a pleasure to work with and sets a good example for others. She is a very valuable member of the City team with the knowledge she has acquired working the different positions she has held. She is always eager to learn new tasks and is willing to go the extra mile to complete an assignment. It is with great pleasure that we name Shirley Mosely as Employee of the Quarter for January, February and March, 1992.
