The Light Regional Council has appointed Bill Close as its new mayor, leading to a vacancy in the Mudla Wirra ward. Close’s election marks a significant shift in local governance, as he takes the reins of the council following a competitive selection process.
With Close now at the helm, attention turns to filling the vacant position in the Mudla Wirra ward, which is crucial for maintaining effective representation within the council. The council is currently assessing potential candidates to ensure that the needs of the community are met.
This change in leadership comes in the wake of an election that highlighted the council’s commitment to addressing local issues and enhancing community engagement.

As the council plans to fill the Mudla Wirra vacancy, it is expected that the selection process will prioritize candidates with a strong understanding of local challenges and a commitment to serving the community. The council aims to finalize the appointment soon to ensure a seamless transition and continued progress on ongoing projects.
