In 2014, the ‘accreditation’ format was launched. The change to an accreditation program means that all towns, not just award winning towns will receive recognition for their efforts through a 1 to 5 star rating. In addition to providing accreditation, the Tidy Towns program will continue to award one town with the Queensland’s Tidiest Town title. The overall winner of the title is decided by a panel of assessors – this does not necessarily mean the town is a 5 star.
