LEXINGTON – The Kentucky League of Cities (KLC) recently recognized Olive Hill Clerk/Treasurer Chimila Hargett with KLC Level II and III awards for Excellence in City Governance and Master of City Governance.
The awards are part of the KLC City Officials Training Center (COTC), a voluntary education program. City officials complete education levels by attending KLC events and submitting outside educational credit from other municipal training.
“The COTC program provides an avenue for our local leaders to become more informed, which helps cities function effectively and enhances the quality of life within our communities,” said KLC Executive Director/CEO J.D. Chaney. “We are proud to offer this service to our members and congratulate Ms. Hargett for reaching these levels of distinction.”
The Level II Excellence in City Governance award requires a city official to attend 60 hours of approved training with two hours of ethics training.
The Level III Master of City Governance award requires a city official to attend 90 hours of approved training with three hours of ethics training.
