Greetings,
In celebration of National County Government Month’s theme, Counties
Moving Forward: Transportation and Infrastructure, DeKalb County
honors and thanks our dedicated employees who have answered the call
of public service by devoting each day to moving this county forward and
remain prepared to ensure DeKalb County’s continued growth and
prosperity.
The Excellence in Customer Service Employee Recognition Program gives us an
opportunity to simply say “thank you” for providing exceptional customer service while
protecting our communities, processing our service requests, picking up our trash, and
beautifying our parks. It takes a special person to dedicate their life to public service, and today
we honor those who have answered that call and gone above and beyond their daily duties.
With a workforce of nearly 7,000 employees, each and every one who serves embodies the
spirit of public service and commitment to getting the job done. You are not told enough that
the county appreciates you for showing up and serving. We recognize that our combined
efforts will help move the county forward.
I especially want to acknowledge the 62 employees identified by their supervisors and
managers to receive a customer service award. You are the reason DeKalb County is a model
of 21st
century governance and excellence, and I salute your service to the 700,000 residents
that call DeKalb County home.
Thank you again for your dedication to the call of public service.
Sincerely,
Lee May
Interim CEO, DeKalb County Government

Benita C. Ransom, Human Resources Director
Honorees,
It gives me great pleasure to recognize you at DeKalb County’s fourth annual Excellence in
Customer Service program. We hold this program in conjunction with National County
Government Month and celebrate with this year’s theme, Counties Moving America Forward:
The Keys are Transportation and Infrastructure. Today we honor, with much enthusiasm, 62
amazing employees whose noteworthy performance continues to move DeKalb County
forward.
As we strive to brand DeKalb County as a leader in providing quality government services, it is
imperative that we honor you for your contribution in meeting the needs of our customers.
Without your outstanding efforts, it would be a challenge to achieve this goal. Your continued
dedication and work ethic embody the County’s customer service standards.
We celebrate you for demonstrating what it takes to be a top performer and doing things
“Smarter, Faster, Better.”
Interim CEO Lee May, COO Zach Williams, and I congratulate you on this richly-deserved

involved in a domestic dispute, and one of the subjects was known to be armed and dangerous. Lauren
remained composed and professional while providing the police units with updated locations of the
vehicle. Her calm demeanor allowed the subject to be apprehended without harm to the parties
involved. This is just one of the many shining examples of Lauren’s excellent customer service and
