Jay passed away in November 2021 and was unable to receive this award in person. His wife, Nancy McCleary, accepted the award on his behalf at the January 10, City Council meeting.

The award is open to individuals, businesses, and organizations. Residents may nominate their own projects or be nominated by another party. Nominations are open until February 28, 2022.
