The Ruth Byrne Historic Preservation Award has been in existence since 1996 and honors individuals or groups that have provided outstanding contributions to historic preservation in Glendale.

This year the Ruth Byrne Historic Preservation Award went to  Ms. Lori Green and Retired Police Officer Dan Kallberg.

Lori Green has been a significant and driving influence in the improvement of Catlin Court over the past few years. Ms. Green moved to Catlin Court in 2002 and worked to restore her historic home gaining the admiration of neighbors and even national recognition through HGTV filming of her home.  In addition, Ms. Green has brought the entire  neighborhood together to accomplish projects ranging from clean-up drives to obtaining grants for restoration of properties.

Mr. Kallberg has been the driving force behind the establishment and operation of the Glendale Police Museum located in downtown Glendale. On November 2, 2002, The Police Museum opened, although Mr. Kallberg developed the idea over a decade ago. He has researched over 100 years of law enforcement in Glendale. Mr. Kallberg has exhibits covering the evolution of the police department in Glendale at the Fraternal Order of Police  building in downtown Glendale Arizona.
