Each year, City employees from all departments gather for an appreciation luncheon to celebrate our many shared successes and to recognize those employees who have earned individual awards for their service.

Value Awards

Since 2022, the City has given Value Awards to the five employees who best represent our five core values of Collaboration, Respect, Excellence, Integrity, and Service. Value Award recipients are nominated by their colleagues.

Directors' Awards

The nine Directors' Awards are presented to the employees whose attitude, work ethic, and performance represent the best of their respective departments. These are selected by the directors.
