Minute With The Mayor Mayor Pierina Dalle Cort

Last week, I had the privilege of attending the World Day of Prayer, a wonderful event that brings people together, regardless of their church or denomination, to share in faith and community. It was heartwarming to see such unity and support across our local churches.

Over the weekend, I also attended the Zonta International Women’s Day Brunch, celebrating the exceptional women in our community. It was a fantastic event, highlighting the incredible achievements and contributions of local women who continue to inspire and lead.

Thank you to everyone involved in organising these meaningful events—your efforts help strengthen our community spirit!

Meanwhile, our region is now in recovery mode following recent weather events. Road assessments and repairs are underway, and we appreciate the community’s patience and understanding as crews work through the damage. Ensuring our roads are safe and accessible is a priority, and we ask residents to take care when travelling through affected areas.

Should you wish to reach out, don’t hesitate to contact me directly by phone on 0447 150 582, or feel free to send an email to mayor@burdekin.qld.gov.au.
