Mayor welcomes new Councillor O'Keefe
Fraser Coast Mayor George Seymour has welcomed new Councillor Zane O'Keefe.
“It is great to have a full Council again,” Cr Seymour said.
“I look forward to Cr O’Keefe attending our meetings as he will bring a new set of ideas and views to our discussions.
“The election of Cr O’Keefe marks the beginning of a new era for Council; a stable Council focussed on delivering infrastructure and services for our community.”
“I am really happy with the result and want to get to work for my community,” Cr O'Keefe said.
“I think the election shows that the community wants to see a council that is focused on results.
“I will be working to ensure we have connected communities with good parks and facilities for all.
“We live in a fantastic region; this is where I am raising my children, where I have run my business and where I have employed people.
“To now represent the community on our council means a lot to me. I want to thank my community for placing their faith in me.”
Cr O'Keefe will soon be sworn in at the Hervey Bay Council Chambers on Friday morning.
