I believe in open communication, active listening and a commonsense approach, ALWAYS!
After 39 years, 31 as staff and 2 terms as Councillor, I have enjoyed my journey and understand the importance of Local Government as the grass root level of government.
George & Sarah Adsett moved to their Mt Kilcoy selection, Glenelg, in 1904.![]()
George served two terms as a Kilcoy Shire Councillor (1924-1930). George was also Chair and committee member of the Mt Kilcoy State School Building Committee formed on 20th February 1908. Having eight children, George was part of the community who understood the need for a school at Mt Kilcoy. The building of the school was approved on 15th April 1908 at a cost of 205 pounds, the building was completed by 21st December. The school officially opened on the 18th January 1909. In 1909, Minnie, Aaron and Arthur Adsett, along with twenty-five other children commenced their schooling at Mt Kilcoy.![]()
In recognition of the achievements of the Building Committee and Great Grandfather Adsett's involvement some 120 years ago, I proudly presented the "George Adsett" Sporting Cup to the Mt Kilcoy State School winning sports house for 2024.
I am looking forward to next yesterday, and working with this wonderful group of people.Regional Development Australia Ipswich and West Moreton Christmas break up! Great team and great year!
Great work!🎖️ On this day 106 years ago, the guns fell silent on Europe’s Western Front. Four brutal years claimed an estimated 16 million lives, including 60,000 Australians. Another 156,000 Diggers were wounded, gassed or imprisoned; leaving lifelong, sometimes intergenerational, physical and mental scars.![]()

On Remembrance Day, we honour those who have served and suffered in all conflicts, and today's commemoration in the small country town of Kilcoy was particularly special. Kilcoy's original war memorial pre-dated modern-day infrastructure, and the memorial was positioned in a tricky spot when it came to upgrading essential services to support the community's growth. In what’s been a fantastic joint effort between our teams, Kilcoy RSL and Somerset Regional Council, a beautiful, updated memorial has been dedicated on a hill overlooking the region from which so many Diggers gave their all. ![]()

Remembrance Day and respect for veterans runs deep at Ergon and Energex – many of our own people have served, so it was particularly special to have some of them at Kilcoy today to remember the fallen at the first commemoration held at the new war memorial site. Our thanks to Kilcoy RSL and the community for welcoming us today, and our endless gratitude to all who have served our country. #lestweforget #RemembranceDay2024![]()
