Council is looking for outstanding Kaipara citizens

 

Last year saw the reinstatement of the Kaipara Citizens Awards to recognise some of the outstanding contributions and achievements of individuals across the district.

Citizens Awards are awarded in recognition of substantial service, usually of a voluntary nature or beyond normal employment, benefiting Kaipara and its people. 

The nominees will have carried out predominantly voluntary work, but payment for services will not necessarily disqualify receiving an award. 
Applications will be assessed on their personal leadership, inspiration, sacrifice or devotion to a cause or made a significant contribution to the wellbeing of the Kaipara district and its citizens.

“Kaipara Citizens Awards are an opportunity to celebrate local people who contribute deeply to our life in Kaipara,” says Kaipara mayor, Dr Jason Smith. “Please nominate long-serving volunteers, visible heroes or quiet back-room workers. They’re not going to nominate themselves. As the Maori whakatauki goes, the kumara doesn’t talk of its own sweetness.”

Last year’s recipients were Bev Ross, Valerie Mann, Lilian Radich, Colleen Preston, and Stella Woolnough. 

For further information about nominations, please contact Jenny Rooney, jrooney@kaipara.govt.nz. Nominations open August 1 and close 4pm August 31.  Nomination forms are available at kaipara.govt.nz or at Council Service Centres and libraries.
