Councillor Cath Fowler has been appointed as the City of Coffs Harbour Council’s representative on a key regional arts body.
At its recent meeting, Council appointed Cr Fowler to Arts Mid North Coast, which advocates for the arts, culture and creative industries on the Mid North Coast.
The body covers five local government areas – Port Macquarie-Hastings, Kempsey, Nambucca Valley and Bellingen as well as Coffs Harbour.
Council also resolved to endorse two postings to community-based committees.
Jan Maksimovic has been appointed to the Woolgoolga Community Village Facility Management Committee, while Michelle King will join the Coramba Community Hall Facility Management Committee.
Venue management committees are charged with the care and and management of a venue, and control things such as taking bookings, collection of fees, paying accounts, administration and maintaining an asset register.
Community venue management committees enable a sense of community ownership, community involvement, development and overall community wellbeing, all meeting the City’s objective of a connected community, the Council said in a statement.
