Forum about local democracy on the Central Coast
The Voices of Central Coast group will hold a public forum with expert speakers from 6.30-8.30pm this Wednesday, March 6, at Ourimbah.
Among the questions addressed will be: How can we rebuild effective local democracy on the Central Coast?
President Ms Barbara Wills said the group was non-partisan and wanted to improve democracy.
"This year is an important year for local democracy and the opportunity to have elected representatives returned to Central Coast Council," she said.
Speakers would include Mr Glenn Inglis, former general manager of Tamworth Council, and Professor Graham Sansom, adjunct professor with the UTS Institute of Public Policy and Governance.
In 2021, Professor Sansom published: "Not so Simple: the origins and implications of Central Coast Council's financial calamity".
