Cr Janice Holstein will return to the Infrastructure Portfolio, while Cr Kathy McLean will retain the chair of the Planning Portfolio.

Cr Jim McDonald maintains the chair of the Environmental Portfolio and Cr Michael Hagan will head the Community Development Portfolio.

Councillor responsibilities:

  • Mayor Cr Milligan: Communication, Promotion and Advocacy; Intergovernmental and Media Relations; Economic Development; Agribusiness; Tourism and Events; Community Engagement and Disaster Management.
  • Deputy Mayor Cr Cook: Sport and Recreation; Community Facilities; Health and Waste Management; Animal Management.

I am confident each Councillor will exceed in their allotted Portfolios, while the returning Councillors will also utilise the experience they have gained in their previous term, Cr Milligan said.

As a Council, it is my goal that we continue to strive to reach our full potential and secure the future of the region.
