We celebrate success at Porirua City and here are some great things that our teams have been doing recently.
This event demonstrated a true partnership approach with the community, delivering a whanau-friendly Waitangi event. The team stood out for their creativity, inclusiveness and outstanding engagement. Not only was the 2024 event well executed, the long-term budgeting and planning for future events was noted as exceptional.
The award was given to Whenua Tapu last year, after mystery visits from experienced judges. The accreditation is overseen by Recreation Aotearoa and is seen across the country as a benchmark standard for a recreation area.
Our hard-working Customer Services team was recognised with a trans-national award. Recognised by the Association of Local Government Information Management (ALGIM) as the top in New Zealand and Victoria (Australia), beating out 80 other councils’ contact centres.
