VICE PRESIDENT POSITION 

Jared Lellhame

My name is Jared Lellhame, I have been with the City of Turlock for fourteen years now and I would like to run for the position of Vice President of the TCEA board. I started my career with the City in the Parks Department as a part time employee before becoming a full time employee with that department. From there I applied for a position in the Utilities Department and have been working as a Utilities Maintenance Worker for a little over two years now. I would be honored to serve as the Vice President of TCEA to represent my fellow employees and make our voices heard. I would do my best to be accessible to all members at any time to address their concerns and answer any questions they may have. As Vice President I will do my best to keep all members informed of everything happening within the association and that all concerns are heard and addressed by the association. Thank you for considering me for the position of Vice President.

BOARD MEMBER POSITION

My name is Zachary A. Christensen and I am running for position of TCEA Board Member. I am a Utility Maintenance worker 1 and I have been with the city for a little over 2 years. It would be an honor to be a representative of all TCEA employees. I will encourage employees to come forward with any and all new ideas to help move us forward. I am not afraid to ask the tough questions. I will try to increase member participation and keep our members as informed as possible by setting aside time for any questions or concerns to be brought up during Friday safety meetings.

Lisa Quiroga

I, Kim Hammack, nominate Lisa Quiroga for the TCEA board member position. (Nominee accepted in writing).

Her dedication to the City, her job, her co-workers and TCEA is admirable. If you know Lisa from her time in dispatch, Finance or Purchasing, you know she can continuously be found going above and beyond helping others, taking the time to research information, inquiry about possible better conducts, asking the difficult questions and standing up for what is right. Lisa brings that same hard work and dedication to TCEA. In her time on the board Lisa has served in the Treasurer and Board positions; playing vital roles in assisting the functionality of the Board. In addition, Lisa always keeps the best interest of ALL TCEA members to heart when discussing matters and making decisions.

TCEA would be fortunate to have Lisa serve as a board member for another term.
