The Williamson County Commissioners Court congratulated soon-to-be retired juvenile services officer Allen Bijou for his 32 years of service Jan. 29.

Bijou has worked in the Williamson County Juvenile Services Department in several capacities, including as juvenile supervision officer, juvenile probation officer, academy director and director of facilities. He retires Jan. 31.

“Williamson County is really an amazing place to live, work and play, but its only as good as the employees we have," County Judge Bill Gravell said. "Your servant heart and your attitude in 32 years in working hard for our county in juvenile services is unmatched."

The resolution on Bijou’s retirement read: “The Williamson County Commissioners Court is proud to acknowledge his 32 years of service to Williamson County and wish him all the best as he starts this new chapter in his life.”
