2017
Congratulations to the entrants, commendation and award winners in the 2017 Awards program, all of which demonstrated examples of excellent planning within our state.
Six judges were tasked with selecting the winners and commendations across 13 categories. The recipients of the awards were revealed at a ceremony on 8 November at Dockside, Cockle Bay Wharf that also commemorated World Town Planning Day.
We thank all those who attended, and those who contributed to a successful night including our fantastic sponsors.
