MAV at the National General Assembly (NGA)
The big ticket issues for Victorian councils – housing and planning, financial sustainability, and roads and infrastructure management among others – these are not unique to our state.
This week’s Australian Local Government Association’s (ALGA) National General Assembly (NGA) is an important opportunity for our sector to share perspectives and understand the best way to approach the opportunities and challenges we’re all facing.
A delegation from the MAV including our President Cr David Clark, Vice President Cr Jennifer Anderson, CEO Kelly Grigsby, and Director of Strategic Foresight and Partnerships Kat Panjari, joined local government leaders from across the country in Canberra.
Yesterdayy's program included a panel discussion on the state and importance of asset management for councils - with our President Cr Clark featuring.
And there's plenty more to come in an action-packed week, as we hear from federal parliamentarians, sector leaders and experts.
