Established in 2006, the Saskatchewan Municipal Awards (SMA) celebrates the excellent and innovative practices of Saskatchewan’s municipal governments.
 
The SMA program also aims:
  • To recognize and celebrate excellence and innovation on the part of Saskatchewan’s municipalities.
  • Shift the main focus to the core audience being Saskatchewan municipalities.
  • To share knowledge amongst municipalities by way of exposure to best practices.
  • To promote cooperation and synergies between urban and rural municipalities.
  • To maintain a focus on awarding municipal driven projects.

The Municipal Capacity Development Program (MCDP) houses over 130 various best practices projects in addition to the SMA winning projects.   Be sure to check it out at the Best Practices Library.  You could find just the advice and guidelines you were looking for to complete a project within your own municipality!

The SMA program is a joint partnership between New North, the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities (SARM), the Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA), the Rural Municipal Administrators’ Association of Saskatchewan (RMAA), the Urban Municipal Administrator Association of Saskatchewan (UMAAS), and the Ministry of Government Relations (GR).
