EMPLOYEE RECOGNITION COMMITTEE
Ron Clark, Committee Chairperson, Elaine Crozier, Executive Secretary
August 15, 2012
Mayor Copenhaver:
The Employee Recognition Committee has selected Mr. Angelo Collier as the July 2012 Employee of the Month for
the City of Augusta. Angelo Collier is employed as a Maintenance Worker I with the Augusta Recreation, Parks &
Facilities Department. He has been employed with us for thirteen (13) years. Angelo was nominated by Carla
McFeely of the Recreation, Parks & Facilities Department.
Angelo displays enthusiasm and a knack for helping fellow employees and our customers. Angelo has repeatedly
responded to early Saturday morning calls so that he could allow a renter into a facility on the spur of the
moment; he would get dressed, arriving at the building in a very short time and ask “is there anything else I can do
to help?” Angelo is excellent at establishing good rapport with our customer base and has on several occasions
been instrumental in guiding the department events through difficult situations; what could have been disastrous
as far as customer service goes, with Angelo’s presence, the situations would end up with success and without one
single complaint from our customers.
Many times Angelo has been called after normal working hours to go to the Old Government House because the
alarm will at time go off; in such a case a security check is required- Angelo is always readily available with no fuss
and neither does he make special personal request for going the extra mile. On such occasions Angelo is available
for the Sheriff’s deputy and Fire Department personnel in the event of false alarms or any other type of emergency
calls. Angelo has provided beyond the call of duty support on numerous occasions particularly when primary
managers or supervisors are on vacation; he continues to do so. Again, he goes the extra mile by ensuring that the
task at hand are all well prepared for in times of events; the department consistently receives accolades for
excellent service provide by Angelo.
Angelo is considered to be one of the best rental superintendents for Carla McFeely. Once he is aware of the
rules/policies he does not depart from them. Angelo has taken the initiative to learn various facilities by observing
our customers as well as reading materials such as standard operation procedures; this enables Angelo to
anticipate and address potential problem processes before an unforeseen incident can occur. Angelo is a fast
learner, a willing and hardworking employee whom is detailed in his execution of affairs. Managers are assured
that when Angelo is on the job, our customers are more than satisfied with the services provided.
The Employee Recognition Committee has assessed that based on this nomination and Angelo’s dedicated and
loyal service to the City of Augusta, we would appreciate you joining us in awarding Mr. Angelo Collier the July
2012 Employee of the Month award.
Thank you,
The Employee Recognition Committee

Equal Employment Opportunity Plan

Caption:Motion to adopt Equal Employment Opportunity Plan (EEOP) for
Augusta, Georgia. (No recommendation from Administrative
Services Committee August 13, 2012)
Background:The requirement to develop, maintain and submit an Equal
Employment Opportunity Plan (EEOP) derives from federal
regulations implementing the Safe Streets Act. Recipients who
have received funding under the Safe Streets Act must comply
with the EEOP requirements. In addition, recipients of funding
under the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act
(JJDPA) must comply with the EEOP requirements because the
JJDPA relies on the administrative provisions of the Safe Streets
Act. Recipients of funding under the Victims of Crime Act
(VOCA) must also comply with the EEOP requirements because
as a matter of policy, the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) has
made compliance with the EEOP requirements a condition for
VOCA awards.

Options for the Augusta, Georgia Municipal Building Renovations and Modernization
Department:Recreation, Parks and Facilities
Caption:Motion approve the recommendation of the Administrtor to
proceed with Option 2d and identify additional funding sources
for Commission approval for the Augusta, Georgia Municipal
Building Renovations and Modernization Project.(Approved by
Engineering Services Committee August 13, 2012)
Background:The design for the Municipal Building Renovations has
progressed through the Design Narrative and Schematic Design
phases and is ready to move into the Construction Document
phase. During the Code Review process it was discovered that the
stairways and elevators did not meet current code requirements.
The stairway can be brought up to code with some modifications.
However, the optimum solution for the elevators, which require an
enclosed smoke lobby and are not ADA Compliant, is to construct
a 9-story addition to the building to house new code compliant
elevators. To accomplish this, the construction costs exceed the
anticipated budget for this project. The purpose of this agenda
item is to present options to the Commission for their
consideration.
