FULLAGAR WINS COUNCIL SPOT
■ Andrew Fullagar has been elected as Yarra Ranges Council’s Streeton Ward Councillor, with the Victorian Electoral Commission declaring the winner on Monday last week (Feb. 28). After preferences were distributed, Cr Fullagar won the election with 5109 votes out of the 9283 recorded for the byelection. Cr Fullagar has been involved in numerous community groups in his ward, including the Upwey Community Group, Township Group and Men’s Shed. The Streeton Ward by-election was triggered late last year, when Cr Cathrine Burnett-Wake accepted a vacancy in the Eastern Victoria electorate of the Legislative Council. “I’m delighted to have been elected as Streeton Ward Councillor,” he said. “I’m really passionate about our community, generally – I’m big on volunteering and particularly the issues in the hills, recently with the storms. I’m very keen to see if Council can give more help to those badly affected. “My goals for the next few years, importantly, will be to bring Council and the community closer together. If we involve community more in our decision-making process, we can achieve so much more together.” “I’d love to acknowledge the other candidates – well done for putting yourselves out there. To the people of Streeton, I’m humbled by your support of me and I’ll do my very best,” he said.
● Cr Andrew Fullagar.
