Mayor calls on locals to step up for key council roles

QLDC Mayor John Glover joined us on the Breakfast Show to talk about a big opportunity for locals to have a say in how council decisions are made. He’s encouraging passionate, skilled community members to apply for independent roles on Council’s Risk and Assurance Committee.

Key points
• Three independent public seats are up for grabs
• Committee focuses on spending, risk and accountability
• Skills sought include finance, auditing, infrastructure and governance
• Open to people with both public and private sector experience
• A chance for locals to directly influence council decision-making
