Ever wondered how you can make a real impact in your local community? On this episode of "This is Boorowa," we bring you a comprehensive guide to Hilltops' upcoming local government elections, scheduled for September 14th. We're breaking down the election process, where 11 councillors will be elected from 16 candidates, and a pivotal referendum that could reduce the number of councillors from 11 to 9. Although our original guest Darren Williams couldn't join us due to a medical procedure, we're focusing on the strategies for a balanced council and the significance of your vote. Plus, catch the details on "Meet the Candidates" sessions to help you make an informed choice.

We're also diving into why this election is crucial for smaller towns like Borough and Harden. Discover how reducing the number of councillors could impact representation for these areas and why your vote is more important than ever. We encourage you to participate in upcoming sessions to engage directly with the candidates and voice your concerns. Additionally, stay informed with updates on local issues like rail trail funding and new development applications. Join us as we discuss our commitment to holding elected officials accountable and ensuring your community's needs are met.
