FNDC digital strategy finalist in LGNZ EXCELLENCE Awards

Far North District Council’s Nothing But Net digital strategy is in line for a 2022 Local Government New Zealand (LGNZ) EXCELLENCE award.

The campaign to improve the district’s digital infrastructure is a finalist in the Kāinga Ora Homes and Communities EXCELLENCE Award for Social Wellbeing category.

Twenty-one finalists have been named for four awards, covering a broad range of council leadership initiatives. 

LGNZ President Stuart Crosby said the finalists exemplify the outstanding service and value that local councils provide in supporting the environmental, economic, social, and cultural wellbeing of communities.

“Councils provide far more than vital infrastructure such as water and wastewater management, rubbish collection and roading. They also work tirelessly, often behind the scenes, to deliver projects that engage and enrich their communities.

“The 2022 finalists exemplify the value of building strong partnerships to develop and deliver solutions and services that support the wellbeing of millions of New Zealanders.”

The winners will be announced at the LGNZ Fulton Hogan Conference Dinner in Palmerston North on Friday, July 22.
