Public Work’s Ron Lessor Named Middle Employee of the Month

Middle Township Public Works Laborer Ron Lessor has been recognized as the municipality’s September Employee of the Month. Lessor was nominated for the award by Public Works Superintendent Rob Flynn and Assistant Superintendent Dave Maahs.

“Ron has been a great asset since joining the Public Works team. He approaches all assigned tasks quickly and efficiently,” Rob Flynn said. “His logging experience has come in handy on many occasions in dealing with problematic trees and vegetation.”

Lessor was hired as a part-time Laborer in September 2022 and moved to full-time status in April 2023.

“If there were more people like Ron, the world would be a better place,” said Assistant Superintendent Maahs, “I’m glad to work beside him every day.”

Lessor will be honored by Mayor Leusner and Township Committee at Middle Township’s Public Meeting at 6pm on October 7th.

Deputy Mayor Ike Gandy oversees the Public Works department and lauded Lessor for his work ethic and positive attitude.

“Ron has a diverse background that makes him such a valuable team member,” Gandy said. “His cheerful disposition and “can do” attitude set a great example for all Township employees to follow.
The Middle Township Employee of the Month program was initiated by the Township Committee to honor employees who exemplify the Township’s commitment to better delivery of services and going the extra mile for residents. The program culminates with the Darius Graham Employee of the Year honor that is named after one of the Township’s most beloved employees in its history.

Nominations for the Employee of the Month Program are available at Township Hall at two locations: Human Resources Department and Administration Department. Residents from the Township who have had a very positive interaction with any Middle Township employee may pick up the one-page nomination form and fill it out in the employee’s behalf.
