Victorian Councillor Service Awards
We recognise the contribution of all councillors and continue the tradition of conferring awards for long serving councillors.
The Victorian Councillor Service Awards comprise two awards:
- Long service is recognised at 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 years' service.
- The award of Mayor Emeritus recognises councillors who have served three or more full terms as mayor. A full term is considered 12 months.
The awards were conferred at the MAV Annual Dinner following the Annual Conference on Thursday 17 October 2019 at the Sofitel Hotel, Melbourne.
Queries in relation to the service awards should be directed to Louise Walsh on 9667 5583 or email lwalsh@mav.asn.au.
