VLGA Connect, Episode 267: Governance Update, 22nd April 2022
On this week's Governance Update, sponsored by Hunt & Hunt Lawyers, a rural council's decision not to fly the Rainbow Flag sparks debate and alarm; a successful Mayoral Easter charity event; modern slavery act obligations on NSW Councils come into effect; differing council approaches to election signage regulation in the spotlight; and a tribute on the passing of a long time friend of local government.
