Since the late 1980s I have been consistently, positively, and successfully involved in multiple organisations, projects and roles striving to make the Snowy Valleys a great place to live. As a councillor I will continue to apply my managerial/governance skills, knowledge and experience towards the multiple challenges facing Snowy Valleys Council.
Local Government provides the most important services to communities on a day-to-day basis to ensure public health, safety and wellbeing and life without these services, and all the other services delivered by council, is almost unthinkable, so council cannot fail.
My commitment is to work positively, diligently, and earnestly with my fellow councillors to ensure that Council is viable, efficient, responsive and relevant. Merged or de-merged, all residents of the council have a right to know that the vital roles provide by their local government will continue to be delivered as efficiently and effectively as possible.
