We’re pleased to announce that at the Special Meeting of Council on 19 November 2025, Councillors re-elected Cr Damien Gallagher as Mayor and Cr Anita Carr as Deputy Mayor for the year ahead.
In accepting his reappointment, Mayor Gallagher reflected on the importance of local democracy and the responsibility of serving our community, saying that “to serve your community is the ultimate expression of citizenship.”
The Mayor also spoke about the year ahead being a defining chapter for Council, with a strong focus on financial sustainability, efficiency, accountability, and genuine community engagement. Over the next 100 days, Council will work to set a clear roadmap for the future, continue to advocate to the Victorian Government for fairer funding, and deepen conversations with our community about priorities for service delivery.
Congratulations to Mayor Gallagher and Deputy Mayor Carr, and thank you to all Councillors for your ongoing commitment to the people of Murrindindi Shire.
