The Fairfax County government's Employees Advisory Council (EAC) has presented the 2009 Don Smith EAC Award to Nancy Klein, a librarian with the county library system.
According to the nomination, Klein, as president of the Fairfax County Public Library Employee Association, worked "tirelessly with county agencies to find answers to complicated human resources queries during the budget discussions," met with elected officials, and made presentations to the Board of Supervisors and Library Board during the fiscal 2010 budget process.
Presented with the 2009 Don Smith Award honorable mention award was Marjorie Braxton, an administrative assistant with the Department of Public Works and Environmental Services.
Braxton was nominated "for the many things she does for the Newington employees that make them feel part of a work family and boosts morale," officials said in announcing the award. "She shares her knowledge about county services and goes out of her way to assist employees."
The Don Smith EAC Award was established by the Employees Advisory Council in 1991 to honor Donald D. Smith, a longtime employee of the Office of Comprehensive Planning who was a mainstay of the EAC for 17 years, retiring in 1987.
