The
purpose
of
the
meeting
tonight
is
to
elect
a
mayor
and
consider
whether
to
establish
the
position
of
deputy
mayor
and
then
an
elected
deputy
mayor.
If
the
position
is
established
due
to
the
current
covenant,
19
restrictions
and
the
public
health
corrections
in
place,
this
meeting
is
deemed
open
to
the
public
by
the
online
live
stream
available
through
council's
website.
A
A
Thank
you
and
the
officers
please
sit
and
ask
the
councillors
remain
standing
for
the
council
commitment,
as
the
council
councillors
will
act
in
the
best
interests
of
the
brimbank
community
and
consider
the
immediate
and
long-term
impacts
of
their
decisions.
Councils
will
make
these
decisions
fairly
and
without
bias.
A
A
Apologies
and
lead
with
absence:
we've
got
no
apologies
tonight.
So
the
first
item
we're
going
to
deal
with
is
the
term
of
the
mayor.
A
So
before
we
move
to
that
task
that
we're
really
all
excited
about
electric
command,
the
council
must
first
decide
if
the
term
of
the
mayor
is
to
be
for
one
year
or
two
years
in
accordance
with
the
local
government,
the
governance
manager.
Could
you
please
arrange
information
to
be
displayed
on
the
screen.
A
I'm
sorry,
but
on
the
declaration
of
the
result
of
the
mayoral
election
by
the
chief
executive
officer,
the
successful
candidate
is
elected
mayor
of
grenville
city
council
for
a
year
if
I
could
have
a
move
or
motion
council
lancashire.
Thank
you.

A
A
A
When
I
call
for
nominations,
councillors
may
nominate
themselves
or
another
councillor
councillors
nominating
a
candidate
must
raise
their
hand
and
will
be
called
upon
to
state
their
nomination.
The
name
of
the
nominated
councillor
will
then
be
displayed
in
writing
on
the
screen
behind
me.
I
will
then
ask
the
nominee
whether
they
accept
the
nomination.
A
A
If
there
is
only
one
nomination,
the
candidate
will
be
declared
to
be
duly
elected.
If
there
is
more
than
one
nomination,
the
governor's
rules
require
councillors
to
vote
for
one
of
the
candidates.
I'll
take
the
vote
on
nominees
in
alphabetical
order
by
cerner.
Please
note
there
is
no
opportunity
to
speak
to
for
or
against
the
nominations.
A
A
A
So
we
have
three
nominations
for
the
mayor
of
the
city
of
greenback
and
they
are
now
in
alphabetical
order,
miraculously
this
happens.

I
would
also
like
to
thank
my
friends,
work
colleagues,
volunteers,
donors,
the
wider
community.
Anyone
who
shared
my
message
to
support
me
on
my
campaign-
it's
not
easy,
as
you
all
know,
to
put
your
hand
on
the
council
or
any
leisure
position
actually,
especially
as
a
first-time
candidate,
but
thank
you
so
much
for
supporting
me
on
my
campaign
and
actually
I
share
my
success
with
you.
E
In
particular,
I
would
like
to
thank
the
vietnamese
community,
the
refugees
and
migrants
who
sell
in
this
drive.
They
walk
see
a
second
generation
in
these
strands.
Like
me,
quick
one
shout
out
to
them
on
your
phone,
I
am
young,
I
am
a
woman
and
I
am
a
vietnamese
australian
heritage
and
I
represent
substantial
social,
cultural,
geographical,
demographics
of
our
municipality
as
greenback's,
first
midterm
needs
and
youngest
male,
I
hope
is,
I
hope,
to
set
president.
E
E
No
matter
your
age,
your
gender,
your
social
economic
status,
your
culture,
your
experience
is
just
as
valid.
I
believe
there
is
a
capability
for
everyone
to
be
a
leader
so
long
as
they
are
true
to
themselves
inside.
Everyone
is
a
leader
and
I
believe
in
leadership
that
empowers
others,
but
a
mayor
is
only
as
strong
as
a
council
team,
11
of
us
and
the
staff,
the
wider
organization,
each
of
our
very
discounts.
E
Expertise
and
you
do
value,
you
know
how
many
ideas
and
plans
for
the
future.
My
fellow
harvest
award
counselors
councillor.
You
are
very
practical
and
I
appreciate
your
focus
on
actions
and
outcomes.
Counselor

your

years.
I'm
sorry

terms
of
being

Your
wide
depth
of
experience
and
knowledge,
tell
us
history
and
bring
back
what's
past
and
connecting
us
together
and
also,
I
must
acknowledge
those
who
have
you
know
been
here
before
me
and
the
position
of
mayor
cancer
rancher
rasik.
E
Thank
you
for
your
resilient
leadership
as
mayor
in
the
first
year
in
the
middle
of
a
pandemic,
you
are
a
street
shooter
and
you
do
hustle.
All
of
us.
Perfect
councils
are
different.
We
all
have
different
public
affiliations,
opinions,
cultures
and
we
may
not
always
see
things
either.
I,
but
I
can
truly
say
we
represent
our
diverse,
culturally
rich
green
banking
community.
E
Our
diversity
is
what
makes
us
strong.
Our
differences
is
our
strengths
and,
as
mayor
I
will
take
on
the
responsibility
of
bringing
us
all
together
as
a
team
and
get
the
best
outcomes
for
our
community.
I
promise
you
that,
because
our
community
deserves
it,
I
was
born
in
broome
bank
side
from
hospital
green
bank
raised
me.
E
I
come
from
a
culture
of
resilient,
hard-working
people
for
refugees,
migrants,
working
class
professionals
we're
the
third
largest
municipality.
We
are
the
second
versus
advantage,
but
we're
down
to
earth
the
beauty
of
living
in
her
bank
is
that
you
can
just
be
yourself.
You
can
feel
safe
to
be
who
you
are.
E
It
is
yes,
it's
it's
time
to
continue
our
facebook

and
responding
to
your
pandemic.
We
haven't
you
so
much
already.
You

like
I'm,
really
focused
on
your
bringing
better
atmosphere
to
youth.
As
I
said,
mental
health,
increasing
our
addressing
our
unemployment
issues.
You
know
our
climate
change
emergency
and
investing
our
infrastructure
like
there
is
such
a
big
gap
between
the
east
and
the
west.
E
E
E
E
E
We'll
move
on
to
item
seven
determination
of
position
of
deputy
mayor.
We
will
now
determine

a
river
of
emotion
regarding
the
position
of
deputy
mail
governor's
manager?
Could

the
version
