Community visits and Local Authority meetings highlights

14 June 2024

Highlights from recent Community Visits and Local Authority Meetings with East Arnhem Regional Council’s CEO Dale Keehne. 

 

It was great to engage again with Communities, Local Authority Members and Councillors, as we do regularly. Here are a few key highlights:

 

- Productive discussions with Council staff working in Communities across Aged and Disability Service, Youth Sport and Recreation, Child Care, Post, Community Patrol, Libraries, Environment & Waste Management and Municipal Services


- Engaging meetings with Local Authority Members and Councillors to address community needs


- Insightful conversations about Councils Youth Strategy

 

A huge thank you to all the Council staff, Local Authority Members, and councillors for their time, insights, and commitment, as always.

 

Working Together, Standing Strong!

 

East Arnhem Regional Council services nine Communities: Angurugu, Galiwin’ku, Gapuwiyak, Gunyangara, Milingimbi, Milyakburra, Ramingining, Umbakumba and Yirrkala.
