Good luck to all of the local competitors taking part in their chosen sport at the local agricultural shows.  Without their participation, the shows would not be as spectacular.

23     Council Briefing – Kilcoy

I wish to take this opportunity to thank Council for allowing and supporting my attendance at the 2023 ALGWA National Conference. I was once again reminded how lucky we are to work in the Queensland Local Government environment.  I do however hold some concerns for our local government family, and definitely what may lie ahead with our, at times challenging professional relationship with Queensland State Government.   I also wish to thank Helen Golinski for the miraculous organisation of this trip, between flights, car hire, negotiating the Melbourne freeways, travelling to Mornington Peninsular, to the booking of a hotel room, without the need to leave the venue.  Other Councillors had to make their way outside the venue, and with the cold and showery weather was uncomfortable for them.  You made it all very easy Helen, thank you.

A huge vote of thanks to those interested residents who made the effort to attend the Kilcoy Streetscape Revitalization Project Stakeholder Breakfast.  There was a great number of attendances and the morning proved to be very productive.  I look forward to the next step in this important planning journey.

I believe in open communication, active listening and a commonsense approach, ALWAYS!
After 39 years, 31 as staff and 2 terms as Councillor, I have enjoyed my journey and understand the importance of Local Government as the grass root level of government.
