Nomination Criteria
Nominations are now open for 2020’s Living Legends. Living Legend nominations will be based on the following criteria:
CRITERION 1. The Nominee has led the creation of something new or the redevelopment of something established that has significantly and positively impacted the quality of life in the City of Alexandria and serves as inspiration to others.
AND/OR
CRITERION 2. The Nominee has demonstrated noteworthy, substantial, and sustained contributions that significantly and positively have impacted the quality of life in the City of Alexandria and serve as inspiration to others, through a significant period of years of service in leadership and/or project management roles, including on boards, commissions, committees, and/or organizations.
Nominations MUST address one or both of the above criteria, answer each question under the criterion, and contain only factually accurate information. Include not more than five pages of relevant, factual details and examples that support the Nominee’s contributions and their impact, because decisions on selected Legends are based solely on the information provided.
Note: Nominees need not reside in the City of Alexandria but must satisfy either or both of the above criteria. Only single individuals or a team of two persons working together are eligible to be nominated. If a team of two persons is nominated, they must be nominated for collaborating on the same innovation, project, program, or achievement. Public employees are eligible to be nominated, but the basis of their contributions MUST be above and beyond the responsibilities of their jobs. Anyone running for or holding an elected office is not eligible for nomination, nor are current members of the Living Legends of Alexandria Board of Directors or any employees and agents of the organization.
