Many municipalities offer the 'Key to the City'. In leu of that, Dodge City is the only city that offers Deputizing, the highest honor afforded to any private citizen.

One of the duties of Marshal Bailey is official deputizing on behalf of the City of Dodge. This includes an official certificate, suitable for framing, signed by the Mayor of Dodge City and Marshal Bailey, and also an official Dodge City Deputy Marshal Badge.
