ICMA's Public Safety Program Excellence Award, established in memory of Philadelphia firefighter William H. Hansell, Sr., and his wife, Alice, is awarded to a local government and its chief administrator for the most creative public safety program. In 2005, ICMA presented the award in the less-than-10,000 population category to the city of Sanibel, Florida, and City Manager Judith Ann Zimomra for the Sanibel Hurricane Preparedness Program. Estimates for private property damage in Sanibel ran more than $720 million during the 2004 hurricane season, however, thanks to a comprehensive, well-executed preparedness plan, the city suffered no loss during the storm or recovery process.
