In politics most people just critizise each other, but what did your local government actually do a good job on?

Quit.

The government here (Netherlands) failed to make any long term decisions. They didn't even make bad decisions, just none what so ever. After the government fell, all major political figures in the main parties just quit. Time for new blood and for the youngest generations to start making decisions. The oldies won't survive long enough to have to worry about the mess the world is in and the mess will only get worse.

No clue if elections will result in something better, but it'll be interesting to see which direction the voters will be going. I't finally worth it to vote for the youngest eligible voters.
