Great letter from Fred Merlo in this week's North Central Review. We wholeheartedly agree that we need councillors who are committed to focusing on essential services and serving the needs of Mitchell Shire ratepayers and his reminder to consider carefully who is deserving of your vote. ...

If anyone is a member of Strathbogie council area community pages its probably worth sharing this letter on those pages so residents there know what they're getting if they vote for Fiona Stevens who is running for Strathbogie Council this time around

Protect Our Farms has prepared a voting guide for all three Mitchell Shire wards. Our rankings are based on a detailed analysis of each candidate, including responses to a survey, review of their statements to the Victorian Electoral Commission, interviews, Council Watch responses and their performance at a meet-the-candidate session.
Is it based on the best candidates that genuinely supports protecting farms or who’s donated most? Most existing councillors have done what they’ve done against this cause yet a few are still up with a green tick after too long in positions.
Melissa Horne MP doesn’t have time to fix councils or roads (she’s roads minister too 🤪) BUT she has time to run a photography competition. So let’s have some fun! This is a call out to all Victorians to submit photos of any of the following: Busted roads Busted Councils Busted service - by councils Busted Councillors Busted Council Meetings In fact - send us ANYthing you think is BUSTED and shows how bad Councils and roads are. We will of course be making our own calendar and sending entries to the minister - we will even give her a free copy of our spectacular calendar 📅 Let’s do this! Entries through october to info@councilwatch.com.au Get your best BUSTED council and busted roads on! ... See MoreSee Less
