Last year at the ElectriCities Annual Meeting, Public Power
Awards of Excellence were presented to 16 public power cities
and towns. More than 60 awards were presented, providing winning
municipalities an opportunity for recognition in their community.
Press releases are prepared for each winner, enabling winning
cities to be recognized for their high level of professionalism
and service in their communities.
I am pleased to present you with the 2007 Public Power Awards
of Excellence nomination packet. All public power community
members of ElectriCities in North Carolina are eligible to participate.
Several award categories are available and the nomination form
is easy to complete. The number of awards given in most award
categories is not limited and several cities should win in each
category. If your city meets the criteria described under each
award, I encourage you to complete the short nomination form
to recognize your employees for the excellent work they do on
behalf of your community.
I hope you will take advantage of this opportunity for recognition
of your city and employees. If you have any questions about
the program, please contact me at (800) 768-7697, ext. 6334.
The deadline for receipt of nomination forms is June 8, 2007.
The awards will be presented at the 2007 Annual Meeting, August
10 and 11 at the Grove Park Inn in Asheville. Winning cities
will be notified prior to the Annual Meeting.
Sincerely,
Rebecca R. Agner
Manager, Strategic Communications
