Employee Feature: Adam's Story

It all started for me when I joined the Town of Innisfil in early winter 2006 as a contract Municipal Law Enforcement Officer. Later that same year, I was hired as a full-time Municipal Law Enforcement Officer and have been loving it ever since!

The position is so diverse, and no two days are the same! In my current role, I am responsible for almost everything enforcement related pertaining to by-laws passed by the Town of Innisfil, and other provincially regulated pieces of legislation, such as the Dog Owner’s Liability Act and Livestock Valuation Processing. Additionally, I take pleasure in assisting and training new Municipal Law Enforcement Officers and provide a mentorship role within the Municipal Law team.

I am proud to have re-established the Simcoe County Municipal Law Enforcement Officers Chapter meeting group, that meets quarterly to discuss various hot topics within the County of Simcoe as well as troubleshoot problems Officers are facing each day. I have established a strong network of connections consisting of various agencies, organizations, and volunteer groups.

The Town of Innisfil isn’t just a workplace for me; it’s like a second family! A memorable moment that truly illustrates this occurred when my wife and I were getting married, staff at the Town of Innisfil held a surprise party for me and my wife. They even took up a collection and purchased euros for us knowing we were going to Greece on our honeymoon. 

I know how hard and challenging this line of work can be, and I have always tried to lead by example. I am forever grateful to work with my wonderful teammates, and yet even more grateful to call them my friends. Each one of them has taught me something along the way!
