He has been an employee of the City of La Porte for a period of almost fifteen (15) years. During this time he has advanced from a mechanic to the Equipment Services Supervisor. He knows his job and performs it in a very effective, ;efficient manner. Isabel was requested to perform the duties of the Equipment Services Superintendent, as well as his normal duties, when the former superintendent resigned. He has done this difficult assignment in a very professional and dedicated manner. He has performed so well he was requested to consider the position of superintendent on a permanent basis; however, for personal reasons, he declined. He was not only willing to assume extra duties, he has performed far above that which was expected of him. He has applied himself to learn duties he would not be expected to do in his normal duties such as preparing budget, preparing Motor Pool lease fees and replacement lists, and making decisions not usually falling under his control. He has done excellently in all of these. Isabel is a joy to work with. He is usually cheerful and optimistic in his outlook. He provides a positive role model for all employees in Public Works and the City. He has regularly performed over and above that required of him without complaint and in a truly excellent manner. For all of the above reasons, I am proud to submit Isabel Salinas as a candidate for Employee of the Quarter. Should you have any questions or desire further information, please contact me or I will be willing to discuss this employee's performance at the selection meeting. Thanks for your consideration. BJ/
