JACKSON HOLE, WYO – Congratulations to Jeremy Parker, Associate Engineer in the Town of Jackson’s Public Works Department. Parker is the recipient of this month’s Value Jackson Award.
Jeremy has served the public in Jackson’s Public Works Department since 2006. Kelly Bowlin, the Development Coordinator in the town’s Planning and Building Department, nominated Jeremy for the award.
“Jeremy’s job can be tough. There aren’t many people wanting to say ‘thank you’ for shutting off water service or tearing up a street as part of a capital improvement project, but Jeremy always takes these situations all in stride and handles individuals with respect, great customer service and professionalism,” Bowlin said. “Jeremy and I work a lot with the same individuals. They will usually start with him and end with me. The feedback that I constantly receive is how great he treated them. I hear things like, ‘nice guy,’ ‘he took the time to walk a job and explain our process,’ ‘he was polite, professional, and very responsive.’ These same traits carry over internally to the organization.”
Jeremy announced several months ago that he will be leaving the organization upon the conclusion of the construction season this year. He will be missed greatly by everyone at the Town of Jackson.
In her presentation, Bowlin added, “I will miss his calm-in-the-eye-of-the-storm manner, his knowledge and good conversations; but I know his future is bright.”
Thank you, Jeremy, for your service to this community over the years. You will be missed.
