Thank you for the people that could turn up Wednesday morning for the Gympie Regional Council meeting for the first general meeting with the newly elected councillors. It was good to see the majority of councillors sitting around the table demonstrated an interest in wanting to know more from council officers other than what was documented in the reports presented.

The meeting started with council staff refusing to place additional chairs for the excess number made available in the public gallery.

The agenda did not have an item listed regarding the fluoride petition that was tabled and discussed in the December 2023 meeting.

We the people have some questions for the CEO which were posted to the My Place Gympie Facebook page on Tuesday afternoon.
