OMA Accepting Nominations for Mayors Leadership Award
The Oregon Mayors Association (OMA) is pleased to announce that it is accepting nominations for its 2024 Mayors Leadership Award. The award recognizes mayors who have demonstrated exceptional leadership qualities which have contributed lasting benefits to their city and community. Awards are typically presented in the small city, medium city, and large city categories, as defined by the OMA Selection Committee.
To be eligible for the Mayor’s Leadership Award, a mayor must have demonstrated a combination of the following essential criteria:
- Be an active member of the OMA on the date the nomination for the award is received;
- Have demonstrated exceptional leadership qualities as a mayor which have contributed to lasting benefits in their city and the community as a whole;
- Have shown considerable involvement in community affairs and governmental relations;
- Have shown exceptional skill in helping to facilitate productive relationships between the governing body and city employees; and
- Have helped other Oregon mayors reach their full potential as community leaders.
The OMA welcomes nominations by anyone (not just mayors) and there is no application form required.
To make a nomination, simply email a letter of nomination describing the nominee’s outstanding leadership qualities to Angela Speier at aspeier@orctities.org.
Nominations are due by 5 p.m. on Friday, May 24.
