Firstly, a BIG THANK YOU to members and supporters who donated to our election campaign kitty. You donated a total of $7,385 which is just fantastic! That will allow us to mount a very effective campaign to support candidates who demonstrate the ability to make much needed change in Ku-ring-gai Council.

Yesterday, Shelley Hancock, Minister for Local Government, announced that the Local Government elections will be postponed to 4 December to allow for a safer environment for the community as well as a fairer contest for candidates. We are delighted with this decision as likely Covid restrictions would result in restricting campaign activity by candidates and community groups like us, and create an unfair advantage for some candidates, particularly the new ones. We will continue the process we have started to identify new candidates who we will endorse, however at a more leisurely pace. We will also continue to agitate for progress on the Hub as there is no reason for Council staff to put down their pencils.

Our Support Lindfield committee is getting a little strapped for time and some talent. We would like to identify someone who has journalist skills and experience, who could help us write press releases/articles for the local/daily papers, and possibly assist with messages to our database. If you have these skills and have a little time to help out can you please contact us at info@supportlindfield.net.

And, of course, we're always pleased to hear from our supporters about any of the work we're doing for the community. I'm pleased to say that a few people have contacted us during our donation campaign and expressed an interest in learning more. Keep it up!

Regards,

The Support Lindfield Team
