Lamont Mayor Skinner to be recognized by AUMA
Lamont Mayor Bill Skinner will be officially recognized for his outstanding contribution to the field of municipal politics at the upcoming Alberta Urban Municipalities Association (AUMA) conference in Calgary.
Skinner is planning to be there in person to accept the AUMA Award of Excellence along with his wife and CAO Sandi Maschmeyer, who he feels are also deserving of recognition.
Skinner received congratulations from other members of council at the September 8th meeting, and he thanked his colleagues for all of their support. To win an Award of Excellence, Skinner said you must be nominated by council. “For them to show me that kind of support is very meaningful,” he added.
The purpose of the award is to recognize outstanding civic leadership by past and present municipal elected officials. Skinner has served on Lamont town council since 1988.
