Councillor Don Palmer Providing Local Leadership & Working for You

Working For You.

Providing Local Leadership and Working for You.

Cr Don PalmerHi! I am Don Palmer and I am Working for You.

Back in 2010, I was privileged to be elected by you (the ratepayers of the Clarence Park Ward of the City of Unley) as one of your two Councillors. Since then, I have been providing local leadership and working for you and on your behalf.

The role of an elected member of a council, as stated in the Local Government Act, is—

(a) as a member of the governing body of the council—

(i) to participate in the deliberations and civic activities of the council;

(ii) to keep the council’s objectives and policies under review to ensure that they are appropriate and effective;

(iii) to keep the council’s resource allocation, expenditure and activities, and the efficiency and effectiveness of its service delivery, under review;

(b) as a person elected to the council—to represent the interests of residents and ratepayers, to provide community leadership and guidance, and to facilitate communication between the community and the council.

In other words. Providing Local Leadership and Working for You.

Our relationship

As I am working for you it is important that I hear your views. I cannot truly represent you without your input. I, therefore, want to hear from you.  There are many ways you can do this by, ringing me on 0414 820 773, emailing me at [email protected], or (during the election campaign) at [email protected] messaging me via Facebook, or contacting the council and asking for them to pass a message on.

This website via the blog page provides another opportunity.

To keep up with my observations about what is or is not happening in the Ward, and the City of Unley generally hop over to my blog page here. Then, if you have a comment, please post it.

You can also visit my Facebook page and leave comments there as well.
