OLYMPIA – The AWC Risk Management Service Agency (RMSA) announced that Pacific mayor Leanne Guier was recently appointed to the Board of Directors.

AWC RMSA is a full-service risk management choice for Washington’s cities and other municipal entities. RMSA offers comprehensive coverage for property and liability needs with a focus on proactive loss prevention, comprehensive claims management, and member training. Pool members include 99 cities and special purpose districts.

“RMSA offers significant value to Pacific and to cities and towns across Washington,” said Guier. “I am proud to serve on the board of directors, and I look forward to working with my peers in this capacity.”

Guier became mayor of Pacific in 2013.

The AWC RMSA is member-owned and governed by an interlocal agreement, bylaws, and the RMSA Board of Directors, comprised of seven elected officials from member entities. The RMSA Board sets policy, has the fiduciary responsibility for the pool, and contracts with the Association of Washington Cities (AWC) for administrative services.

AWC serves its members through advocacy, education, and services. Founded in 1933, AWC is a private, nonprofit, nonpartisan corporation that advocates on behalf of cities and towns, provides training and pooling programs such as RMSA. AWC was created RMSA in 1987 to assist cities in meeting their property and liability needs.
