Each office submitting an application for the award must have at least one staff person in the office who has achieved their Texas Registered Municipal Clerk designation by time of application. Application for the Municipal Clerk’s Office Achievement of Excellence Award requires a complete application packet (including all required documentation) and the application fee submitted by the March 15 deadline.

TMCA’s Award of Excellence Committee will review entries for completeness. Incomplete applications will not be considered. A municipal clerk’s office will be awarded the Achievement of Excellence Award based on whether or not they met the criteria in nine of the twelve stated standards. The municipal clerk's office need not provide all services indicated in each standard, but shall include documentation demonstrating achievement of each standard selected. Once awarded, the Municipal Clerk's Office Achievement of Excellence Award covers a period of two years.
