Cr Column Councillor Callan Oar

Last Wednesday morning the councillors and senior staff cooked breakfast for all Council staff in the theatre forecourt. It was a great chance to get the whole team together for an update from our new CEO Matthew Magin.
Matthew explained his vision for Council and also announced who will be filling the two directors' roles. Congratulations and good luck to our directors. It's so good to have local people with great experience filling these senior roles in our Council.

This week I have been down in Brisbane for the Local Government Association Queensland Annual Conference. What an experience it was. The workshops, networking and trade stalls were the three best takeaways from the trip. A lot was learned, and hopefully, some good relationships have been developed.
