During the meeting, Council noted Cr Ron Ismay’s Mayoral Report for 2024/2025, reflecting on what Council has achieved for the first year of the 2024-2028 term.

Cr Ismay, Mayor, responded, saying “I thank Councillors and the community for their support over the previous year, and look forward to serving another term and working with Cr Barker as Deputy Mayor. With a new Council Plan, there is much to achieve, and I look forward to seeing a number of fantastic community projects coming to fruition.”
