New Council
Now the elections are over I would like to say a big thankyou to everyone who cared enough to put their name forward for any position . Some of you will be elated , others a bit crestfallen , but you did yourselves and the district proud by being there . If the person you didn't vote for won please try to keep positive about who did , they will be doing their very best to improve our region . Congratulations to all who won a position and commiserations to those who didn't convince enough to vote for them , don't take it personally people , that's the nature of politics . Finally , congratulations Bernie Wanden
