PRINCE GEORGE —The City of Prince George has won two leadership awards at the most recent annual meeting of the North Central Local Government Association.

The City won the Environmental Stewardship award and the Economic Development Award, which was presented jointly with the City of Prince Rupert.

The Economic Development Award was awarded “in recognition of their partnership to launch and advance the Northern BC Hydrogen Hub initiative.” The Environmental Stewardship award recognized the city’s efforts to “acknowledge, preserve, and protect our community’s natural environment.”

Deanna Wasnik, Director of Planning and Development, said:

“I am incredibly proud of the teams for earning these awards. Our commitment and work in the areas of asset management and economic development are world class. We often talk about our unique infrastructure story in Prince George – our expansive geography presents both challenges and opportunities. From an asset management perspective, this means we have more natural areas to manage and preserve. It’s a monumental task, and these teams are meeting the challenge with excellence,” Director Wasnik said.
