WITH Council now in caretaker mode and the elections looming the agenda for the 12 March 2020 Cassowary Coast Regional Council (CCRC) Committees meeting

Next week is the last week to have your say Advertisement

in Tully was fairly light.

It was not a surprise that it kicked off with a discussion, initiated by the Mayor, regarding the coronavirus situation.

The Disaster Management Group had recently met to address the likelihood that it was a matter of “when, not if, persons would be affected on the Cassowary Coast”, and possible impacts

on the forthcoming Feast of the Senses, plus the Innisfail and Tully Shows, even though these latter events are 4 months away.

The possibility of the final Council meeting on 26 March being held by way of teleconference was considered but rejected as the CEO indicated that this would not meet Council’s statutory obligation to ensure a public meeting.

Cr. Nolan raised the possibility of live-streaming Council meetings, an election policy of mayoral candidate Macdonald. It was revealed that Council IT staff have already investigated this and Council is almost in a position to begin to offer this to the public once cameras are installed in Council chambers. Cr. Kimberley suggested the next council should

also consider afternoon rather than morning meetings.

Council has been successful in obtaining a matching $50,000 grant from the State Government towards a feasibility study and concept design for the proposed Cardwell Mountain Bike Track.

The Director Planning and Regional Development indicated that four consultants had been ap-

proached for these reports and he hoped to obtain initial responses by the end of next week. Written support from the Girramay Native Title holders has now been received.

Development consultants, SMEC, have been appointed to deliver design and documentation for the Mission Beach Master Plan to assist grant opportunities

VOTE for one!

I know what has to be done to REFORM Council and stimulate our economy.

Currently employed for almost 9 years by Cassowary Coast Regional Council supporting the operational teams. I have integrity and will apply the principles of honesty, fairness and transparency. I will not operate my own business, so I can devote all my efforts full time to public service. I am asking for your support to represent Division 6 for the next 4 years, which is critical in achieving the expectations of all ratepayers and the community.
