AWARDS FOR EXCELLENCE 

The LGMA Awards for Excellence recognise the best of local government initiatives in the state, noting the differing environments and communities that local government serves. LGMA is delighted to present a programme which acknowledges and celebrates the outstanding work undertaken by local governments across Queensland. 

The categories are designed to be flexible – recognising that local government is at the forefront of innovation and operates in a rapidly changing environment. Categories are not intended to be limited to particular areas of local government activity. Instead, they are applicable to activities across the whole of local government.

If a project/initiative comes to mind, be sure to look at the award categories and determine which is the 'best fit' for that particular project. Please note that a project or initiative may be nominated in up to two categories and each will be treated as a separate nomination. When you’ve determined your suitable projects and categories, all that’s left to do is to nominate!

The Award Categories include:

Above and Beyond
Community Shaping
Collaboration
'Doing More with Less' (Category 1 Councils Only)
Innovation
Teamwork
Workplace Wellbeing
Sustainability
