Annual Awards and Recognition
PSAR shall recognize three REALTORS®, Brokers, and Affiliates each year from three distinct geographic areas of San Diego County.  Central San Diego, East San Diego County, and South San Diego County.  The staff will accept anonymous nominations from the Recognition Committee, the public, PSAR Members, and or PSAR Staff. The names of individuals making nominations will remain secret.  The number of nominations shall not create an advantage for nominees. Award winners may not be the sitting President of the Association and may not be a past recipient of the specific award regardless of geography.  Meaning, the REALTOR® of the Year award from the South, may not be given subsequently to the same REALTOR® in the East. 

Recognition Committee
Individuals in the following positions will be invited to participate at the Annual Recognition Committee meeting to select award winners.   The past recipient of REALTOR® of the Year, Broker Manager of the Year and Affiliate of the Year from each geographic area, Affiliate Director, members of the Association Council, the Chair of Professional Standards (if a PSAR Member), and the Chair of the Grievance Committee (if a PSAR Member) will be invited to attend this meeting. While all eligible members will be invited to participate, a quorum will be established by five attendees who have not been nominated for an award.  Nominees may participate in the meeting but must recuse themselves when their potential award is being discussed.  All qualified nominees as determined by the Recognition Committee will be invited to attend the Annual Installation Event and will have their names listed in the event program.  At least one runner-up for each award will be announced at the event.
