The Renton Police Department honored its 2012 Employees of the year during the city council meeting March 4.

Chief Kevin Milosevich was on hand to present the 2012 awards to the three employees of the quarter (the department only handed out three last year) and the employee of the year.

This year Detective Steve Morris, Officer Eric Stevens, and Administrative Assistant Melissa Day were honored for their work within the department.

Day received the Employee of the year Award.

According to Milosevich, the awards are a "bottom up" program, with nominations and votes coming from within the department ranks, not the administration.
