President’s Forward

Having been elected as Chair of S&HLGA in February, it is an honour and a privilege to represent such a fabulous area. As I say when I speak of this area in my role as Chair, Regional Development Australia – Adelaide Hills, Fleurieu and Kangaroo Island (RDA), we have the fillet of the State! Mayor Brian Hurn has held the position of S&HLGA Chair for some years, and I wish to thank Mayor Hurn for his ongoing contribution and support, as we move into an era of change. Fred Pedler is retiring in December, presenting us with the challenge of choosing a new Executive Officer. As we move forward, the team has done great work with Fred to implement a process for his replacement. The RDA regular reporting of activities and issues to the S&HLGA has been of great benefit. Renewable energy has been, and will continue to be a high priority, along with waste management and land fill issues. The Zero Waste $s need to comeback into the area for Research and Development so we can manage our waste minimisation and reuse activities more effectively. I appreciate the opportunity to represent you on LGA State Executive and would take this opportunity to congratulate Mayor Kym McHugh on his appointment as LGA State President. We have a good representation at the table working for our region. In closing, I thank Fred Pedler for his valuable guidance, and the ongoing contribution of member Mayors and CEOs. Mayor Ann Ferguson President
