Outgoing councillor Peter Davidson chose not to contest the local government election this year after 11 years in the position.
He attended his final council meeting in November where he was presented with a local government NSW (LGNSW) merit award.
The LGNSW award demonstrates appreciation of commitment and dedication to the pursuit of achievement for the community of a local government in NSW as a member of Leeton Shire Council.
