R.W. Hay Award

The RMA, in partnership with the Society of Local Government Managers (SLGM) extends an invitation to member municipalities to nominate outstanding rural administrators for the R.W. Hay Award for Rural Administrative Excellence.

Anyone is eligible to nominate a candidate for the award, but the nomination form must be endorsed by the Council of the employing municipality and signed by the reeve/mayor. 

Any chief administrative officer that served or is serving in the current calendar year in an RMA member municipality is eligible to be nominated. No individual may receive the award more than once. An individual who sits on the R.W. Hay Evaluation Committee may not be nominated.

Thank you to everyone who submitted nominations for this year’s awards. The nomination period has officially closed. All nominations received by the deadline will be reviewed by an evaluation committee comprising three past winners, three representatives from the Society of Local Government Managers Board of Directors (SLGM), and one member of the RMA Board of Directors. 

If you have any questions, please contact Miranda Andersen by phone at 780-955-4093 or by email.
