Murrumbidgee Council Mayor and Deputy re-elected

Murrumbidgee Council Mayor, Ruth McRae OAM, has been re-elected to the role, with Councillor Robert Black also to remain in the Deputy Mayor position following a vote at last night’s Council meeting.

Mayor McRae said it was a great honour to once again serve the Council and community.

“There have been so many highlights but I’m especially proud of how we work together as a Council and community to move our local area forward,” she said.’

“The community spirit is what helps to drive our progress. We have a number of complex issues that we face as a community but we are focused on finding solutions together. 

“We have completed a number of projects including the new Coleambally Community Hall where we met this week. These are instrumental in building on the qualities of our area as an exceptional place to live, work and play.”

Councillor Black said he looked forward to continue working with the community to achieve sustainable and progressive outcomes for the Murrumbidgee Local Government Area.

Both will hold their positions until the next ordinary election of Councillors, but not exceeding two years.
