SAVANNAH — The Georgia Municipal Association presented long-time retired Executive Director Jim Burgess with its Lifetime Achievement Award during the organization’s annual convention in Savannah. Burgess served as GMA’s executive director from 1983-1995 and played a significant role in shaping the many programs and services currently offered by GMA.
“We thought it was appropriate to include him because of his deep knowledge of GMA’s history and the tremendous impact he has had on the growth and development of the association for many years,” said GMA CEO and Executive Director Larry Hanson.
