🏠 Shire CEO Paul Martin joined State Government Ministers and industry leaders to represent the Shire at this important housing roundtable this week. 🔑 Up for discussion was how to unlock affordable housing opportunities. 👏 As a State Government election nears, the Shire will continue to advocate to get the best possible outcomes for our rapidly growing community.

Yesterday, WALGA hosted Local Government Minister Hon Hannah Beazley MLA, Housing and Planning Minister Hon John Carey MLA and Urban Development Institute of Australia WA CEO Tanya Steinbeck as they joined CEO Nick Sloan and Local Government CEOs to discuss ways to address delays in housing delivery. Local Governments have long been striving to reduce red tape and while the data suggests Local Government are not causing delays, we will continue to support the State as the shortage of social, affordable, and key worker housing presents a critical challenge for communities across WA. WALGA's 2025 State Election Priorities presents initiatives and solutions that highlight how Local and State Government can work together to address the current housing crisis.

☀️ It was a big day at the Shire of Serpentine Jarrahdale yesterday, as the WA Premier Roger Cook arrived in Mundijong with ministers for the Community Cabinet. With a State election just months away, Shire President Rob Coales and CEO Paul Martin presented to Cabinet on the Shire’s key advocacy projects. It was also an opportunity for David Templeman MLA Minister for Sport and Recreation to sign a $18.5 million State Government funding agreement with the Shire for one of those projects - Keirnan Park Recreation Precinct, even finding time to drop in on our mobile library with Member for Darling Range Hugh Jones MLA! The Keirnan Park funding is on top of the $3.5 million the Shire has already received for the major infrastructure project. We are all really excited to have Common Ground Trails on board to drive the first stage of construction and design of a new pump track for Byford. 🙏 Thanks to the Premier, ministers and Hugh Jones MLA for visiting the Shire and for their continued support.
