  • Annual Report Details the Last 12 Months Activity Undertaken by the EPLGA, Its Financial Accounts, and Operative Regional Collaborative Partnerships
    EYRE PENINSULA LOCAL GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION A N N U A L R E P O R T 2019-20 W W W . E P L G A . C O M . A U Authors: Peter Scott Executive Officer Eyre Peninsula Local Government Association Sue Henriksen Business Support Officer Regional Development Australia Eyre Peninsula Inc. Cover photo: Murphy's Haystacks, Eyre Peninsula. Photo: SATC. Eyre Peninsula Local Government Association THE PRESIDENT’S REPORT This annual report details the last 12 months activity undertaken by the EPLGA, its financial accounts, and operative regional collaborative partnerships. The vision and goal of the EPLGA, to “enable Eyre Peninsula councils to excel, innovate, and thrive”, has never been more relevant for the region than now. We have been facing many challenges and opportunities, with the need for the councils of the EP to be working closely together. The EPLGA has seen a change in the position of Executive Officer, with Tony Irvine retiring at the end of 2019. The contribution which Tony has made over many years of involvement with local government on the Eyre Peninsula deserves recognition, especially his time as the EPLGA Executive Officer. The EPLGA is in a much stronger position due to the work which has been done by Tony over his tenure. Peter Scott was appointed in February 2020, bringing with him already established knowledge and relationships from his prior employment. With this appointment, there was also developed a shared service agreement with RDAEP to deliver economic development projects agreed with a joint workplan arrangement. These new and unique arrangements will help local government have a strong interest in economic development and also make economic savings for both organisations.

EPRPS NEWSLETTER - June 2012 Page 2 850’s BIRTHDAY PARTY The 50th anniversary of SAR loco 850 was marked at the Port Lincoln Railway Museum on 24th March 2012. Leading up to the event it was increasingly unlikely that 850 itself would be present as it was working out at Thevenard on the gypsum trains. However, a locomotive transfer unexpectedly occurred and 850 arrived back in town at 6:30 that morning hauling 1601 and 1604. GWA very kindly placed the locomotive adjacent to the museum for the day. A pleasing crowd of over 40 people attended the occasion. The museum had mounted a photographic display covering 850’s delivery to Port Lincoln and subsequent working life on Eyre Peninsula.

  • Eyre Peninsula Local Government Association Immediately Started the Lobbying Process for Upgrades to Roads Across the Region to Deal with the Increased Road Activity
    Mission Statement As an elected level of government, the Wudinna District Council will provide leadership, representation and advocacy for its community. It will be accessible and work with the community to identify and provide for its needs efficiently and meet its aspirations. The Council will operate with integrity and be open and accountable to the community in all of its activities. Mayor’s Message Mayor Eleanor Scholz How quickly another year has gone by! We had the Council Elections last November. A big thank you to Tony Griffin for his contribution to Council over the past 5 and a half years. With Tony leaving we then welcomed Liz Habermann as our new Councillor and begun our next four-year term. We were soon into another busy year. It was with great pleasure that we saw the final section of the Kyancutta- Mt Wedge Road sealed. A big project between the two Councils, assisted with the Commonwealth’s Special Roads Funding. We celebrated with an Opening by Federal Member for Grey, Rowan Ramsey and the Works Teams from both Elliston and Wudinna Councils. Thanks to our local Works Team for their efforts and for keeping up with our local road works program as well. With 2018-19 being a drier season, we soon saw paddocks drifting over local roads, a reminder of just how fragile our land is. Our Council along with others from across Eyre Peninsula and drier sections of the State were invited to attend a session with the Commonwealth Drought Commissioner, as a result we were included in the Drought Funding Project for Councils with a 6- month timeframe to spend the funds.
