THE City of Maribyrnong’s concerns will continue to reach the peak local government lobbying body with the election of a new council representative.
Mayor Michael Clarke has been elected as the new representative to the Municipal Association of Victoria (MAV) after the resignation of councillor Joseph Cutri.
Cr Clarke, who formally held the deputy position, was elected during last month’s ordinary council meeting.
The MAV advocates the interests of local government and provides strategic advice and support to councils such as the City of Maribyrnong.
Councillor Dina Lynch was elected as the council’s deputy representative.
