Mayor Reynolds knocked back my request to attend today's meeting remotely, despite letting other councillors do so previously.
Even though I am on an approved leave of absence, I wanted to be there to speak against increasing travel entitlements for councillors.
Today's agenda revisits critical budget measures. Last month, I proposed a package designed specifically to keep rates low while maintaining the standard of service you expect. The majority of council voted down my proposal, but I will always keep ratepayers top of mind.

Making City Life Better!
Small changes often make the biggest impact. In this carpark, the pavement used to lead to a dead end; after I suggested a connection to the City, it is now fully accessible.
If you have ideas—large or small—to improve the City of Perth, I would love to hear them.
Let’s keep building a better city together.

Professionalism is the Secret Sauce!
There is nothing better than seeing hard work and expertise recognised. A quote from the former Premier in today's media:
“The councils that are operating effectively tend to be the large ones, Stirling, Cockburn, City of Perth, and they have professional staff and are a lot more capable.”
The City of Perth team is truly world-class! Having a group of highly qualified, professional staff makes all the difference in delivering a vibrant and well-run city.
