Taupō District Council receives A grade from CouncilMARK

Darren Petry from Taupō District Council

Taupō District Council is heading in the right direction despite significant challenges relating to population growth and the Covid-19 pandemic, an independent assessment report has shown.

Council received a CouncilMARK grading of ‘A’ last month, an improvement from the ‘BBB’ rating in our first assessment in 2018. The latest on-site assessment was conducted in April this year.

The CouncilMARK programme, developed by Local Government New Zealand, is designed to improve the public's knowledge of the work councils are doing in their communities and to support individual councils to further improve the service and value they provide.
