Bruno Marchetti Award

Bruno Marchetti represented the City of Stockton in the CMBTA (now CMRTA) for many years. He served as a mentor to many revenue professionals before there was an official program. Many of the state leaders attribute their early success to Bruno's assistance and that made them want to do the same.

To honor Bruno's legacy, the State Board began a recognition program for those members who consistently demonstrate the highest ideals of the municipal revenue professional and a willingness to help their fellow revenue professionals whenever requested. This is the highest award given by the organization.

To qualify, the potential recipient should have made a lasting improvement to the organization statewide. Additionally, he or she must have served two (2) years on a division board and four (4) years on the State Board. The years do not have to be consecutive. While being a Certified Revenue Officer (CRO) is highly encouraged, it is not a mandatory requirement.

The Bruno Marchetti Award is given at the CMRTA's annual conference. Past recipients are listed below. Nominate someone today!
