MAYOR AND DEPUTY MAYOR ELECTED FOR CABONNE

Councillor Kevin Beatty has been elected unopposed as Mayor of Cabonne Council for his second term, at an Extraordinary Council meeting held in Molong on Thursday, 6 January 2022.

Councillor Jamie Jones has also been re-elected as Deputy Mayor, for his second term as Deputy Mayor.

A draw was required for the election of the Deputy Mayor following the receival of nominations from both Councillor Jones and Councillor Marlene Nash.

Councillor Beatty will serve as Mayor until the mid-term Mayoral election due to be held in September 2023.

Councillor Jones will serve as Deputy Mayor until the September 2022 Ordinary Council Meeting.

First time Councillor, Andrew Rawson, and re-elected Councillor, Marlene Nash, have been elected as delegates to Central Tablelands Water.

Both Councillors Beatty and Jones are looking forward to continuing to work together in building on the work of the previous Council.

“We recognise there are a large number of projects currently underway across Cabonne, which we are looking forward to seeing completed,” Councillor Beatty said.

“However, we also acknowledge that the Cabonne community wants their Council to address essential service needs such as improvements to roads, upgrades to our swimming pools, and lobbying for better telecommunications,” said Councillor Jones.

“I believe our newly elected Council is not only enthusiastic and eager to work with the community to get priorities actioned, but also has the breadth of experience to achieve great success for the whole of Cabonne,” said Councillor Beatty.

An opportunity for Cabonne communities to meet the new Council is planned for mid-February 2022, with further details to be provided in coming weeks.
