October 4, 2013 - Auburn, ME —The Maine Town and City Clerks’ Association recently awarded Auburn’s City Clerk, Sue Clements-Dallaire the 2013 Rookie of the Year award at the Maine Municipal Association Annual Convention on October 3, 2013 in Augusta.

Mayor Jonathan LaBonté stated, “The position of City Clerk serves to bring stability to process, from elections through meeting support on parliamentary procedure, to business licensing and public information. Sue has stepped into this role humbling, yet with great professionalism and a commitment to support our community.”
