David Booth Guest Speaker

David gave us the council’s plan of three key outcomes – liveable place, take advantage of economy and generate jobs in our region. He would like to see us work together in a strong partnership and achieve all that we want to achieve.   Next year rate capping will take effect and David went on to explain this.  He feels the council will be well down on revenue and are positioning themselves for this.  He went on to explain the council’s dilemma at the high cost of maintenance on old buildings and swimming pools around Moira Shire. He said they want to engage communities in decisions that are to be made and felt we need to capture our history and should never lose our stories and legacies.
