Adjournment CEO REPORT Report of the Chief Executive Officer September, 2017 Delaware River Port Authority of Pennsylvania and New Jersey One Port Center 2 Riverside Drive Camden, New Jersey 08101-1949 To the Commissioners: The following is a summary of recent DRPA activities. The appropriate reports are attached: DRPA September 20, 2017 CEO Report Administration Division Submissions September 2017 Efforts to Interest New Citizens Advisory Committee Members (CAC) We are working hard to continue to interest New Jersey and Pennsylvania citizens to serve on the Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC). CAC recruitment efforts are focused on public outreach to make potential members more aware of the CAC, its purpose, and membership. The Authority reaches out to the public in multiple ways, such as frequent social media postings and news releases. Two (2) Authority websites (www.drpa.org and www.ridepatco.org) publicize the CAC and give the public access to additional information about the Committee and a copy of the membership application. The last news release was sent to the media on April 18, 2017. At every PATCO High Speedline station, there are plasma signs advertising the CAC. In the near future, the CAC will also be advertised on the variable screens in refurbished trains for passengers to see during their ride. A picture of what the riders will see is posted above. Potential members can also pick up copies of the CAC application at all the Authority’s public facilities - One Port Center, Ben Franklin Bridge, Walt Whitman Bridge, Betsy Ross Bridge, Commodore Barry Bridge, and at every PATCO station. The applications are monitored by Authority staff and replenished as often as needed, so they are always available to potential CAC members. Expansion of the EverBridge Alert Notification System Work is being done to expand the EverBridge Alert Notification System to include all Authority employees. Currently, Public Safety and other key staff receive construction, traffic and other important notices on the devices they choose to connect. When expanded, all Authority employees will be able to receive important information, specifically severe weather notifications, on their home phones, mobile devices, Authority and personal email. These messages can be communicated via a recorded voice message, an SMS text message and/or an email message. This effort will improve authentic communication with employees and ensure that we are able to communicate important and time sensitive information in an efficient manner. Check out a list of recent Awards and Recognitions on DRPA’s Website, drpa.org The DRPA’s website, www.drpa.org lists a number of recent awards and recognitions you may find of interest. For your convenience, we have listed them below in a screen shot from the website. They include CEO recognition on the 2017 South Jersey Biz Power 50 list, the Award for Excellence in Financial Reporting, the WTS Philadelphia Chapter Diversity Award for Excellence in Diversity Contracting, and 2015 and 2016 corporate wellness recognitions. Additionally, on May 18, 2017, the Authority was honored with an award from United Way for “Leading the Way” by running such a successful campaign and increasing our employee donations to United Way by over 100% over last year by raising over $25,000 in employee donations. Below is a photo from the United Way awards event depicting Laura Sadler Hunter, Customer Service Coordinator from the Administration Division who oversaw the United Way initiative for DRPA and PATCO and John Emge, Vice President & Regional Executive Direction of the United Way of Greater Philadelphia and southern New Jersey. We hope you will visit our website under Awards and Recognition and read more about all of these awards and accomplishments. Human Resource Services Department Job Fairs Outreach and Current Job Vacancy Posting Sites In 2017, the Department of Human Resource Services (HRS), along with staff from other departments and divisions, have been very active at regional Pennsylvania and New Jersey job fairs promoting job opportunities at the DRPA and PATCO. The photo montage that follows shows our staff in action. So far in 2017, staff have attended 15 job fairs (7 in NJ and 8 in PA), and will attend three more fairs in the fall. A total of 869 individuals have stopped by the Authority’s job fair tables to converse with staff and obtain information about vacancies. Additionally, please see a list of 36 job vacancy posting sites used by HRS to search for qualified individuals from the region.
