Central Coast Council Watch

Introducing the Gosford West Ward candidates

September 3, 2024 by Merilyn Vale

 

Listed below are Gosford West Ward candidates in the order they will appear on the ballot paper.

Each candidate was asked five questions about themselves and five questions about Council”s operational plan to see what they knew about council and where their interests were.

Some people kept to the 100 word limit and others didn’t!

The questions about the operational plan included a yes or no answer to this question: Do you support keeping the 2021 ten year special rate variation (rate increase) beyond 2031?
