Our 33rd Annual Salute to Local Government awards event will recognize the positive impact that public sector ingenuity and excellence have on taxpayers and communities throughout Wisconsin. Award categories will showcase local governments and school districts for innovative problem solving, efforts to advance racial equity, and intergovernmental and public-private cooperation. We also will honor individuals in the public sector for excellence and lifetime achievement, and in partnership with UW-Madison’s La Follette School of Public Affairs, will recognize innovative performance in state government.
