CLARKSVILLE, IN (September 18, 2024) – Clarksville Town Manager Kevin Baity is receiving some much deserved praise from his peers across the hoosier state.  Members of the Indiana Municipal Management Association (IMMA) have voted to name Baity the 2024 “Manager of the Year”.  Members were asked to nominate a worthy Indiana town or city manager earlier this summer, then recently voted on their selection.

Clarksville’s Town Council President, Ryan Ramsey, announced the decision during Tuesday night’s Town Council meeting and congratulated Baity on his accomplishment.  Baity received a round of applause from the Town Council and town staff in attendance.

The IMMA was created to support municipal and county managers and to promote professional local government management across the state.  The association is a non-profit, non-partisan organization composed of professional local government managers, such as city and town managers, chief administrative officers, and assistant and deputy managers, who share a passion for providing excellent public service and implementing policies that make communities better places to live.  The group is an affiliate of Accelerate Indiana Municipalities (AIM).

Manager Baity started with the Town of Clarksville back in June 2016.  His most recent contract with the town was set to expire later this year, but the Town Council recently voted to extend Baity’s contract through December 2027.
