Council Watch

Watching Central Coast Council on behalf of fair-minded and reasonable people.

Central Coast Council Watch

Attendance record for councillor briefings

October 31, 2019 by Merilyn Vale

The number of briefings councillors have attended - different from council meetings.

This list above shows the number of briefings councillors have attended in the last 12 months.

It covers a period when Cr Jane Smith (Ind) was mayor: she attended the most, going to 60 out of a possible 78.
Cr Sundstrom (ALP) attended 58.
Cr Greenaway ( Ind), 55.
Cr Hogan (ALP), 54.
Cr MacGregor (ALP), 52.
Cr McLachlan (Ind) 50.
Cr Holstein (Ind), 48.
Cr Mehrtens, (ALP), 47.

Next best was Cr Pilon, (Liberal) who attended half (39).
Cr Burke attended 38.
Cr Gale Collins (Liberal) attended 37.
The current Mayor, Lisa Matthews (ALP) attended 36.
Next was Cr Vincent (ALP) on 33.
Cr Marquart (Liberal) attended 19.
Cr Best (Ind) attended the least on 17.

 

Central Coast Council Watch was started by me, retired journalist Merilyn Vale, when the councillors were elected in 2017.

I upload FB accounts of each meeting in the hope that those posts will form a database for voters to assess the councillors’ contributions.
