Cr Brett Nolan has been elected as Deputy Mayor for the next 12 months following a vote at Wednesday’s Narrabri Council Meeting.
Mayor Darrell Tiemens congratulated Cr Nolan on being awarded the role and said he looked forward to working with him as Deputy Mayor.
“I have absolutely no doubt that Cr Nolan will do a terrific job in the Deputy Mayor role,” Mayor Tiemens said.
“He is not just a great volunteer, he is an accomplished business operator and owner, great sportsman, and well-known figure across Narrabri Shire.”
“It is fantastic that Cr Nolan is also taking on such an important role within Council.”
Mayor Tiemens also recognised outgoing Deputy Mayor Cr Brett Dickinson, who elected not to nominate for the Deputy Mayor role, for his work during the past year.
“The role of Deputy Mayor is often unrecognised, and it is very much a valuable role,” he said.
“I just want to personally thank Cr Dickinson for being such as a steadfast and constant support for me.”
“Cr Dickinson elected not to stand for the Deputy Mayor position again as he wanted to give another Councillor a chance to take on the Deputy Mayor role,” Mayor Tiemens added.
“We really appreciate everything Cr Dickinson did in the role for me as Mayor and for Councillors, as well as Council staff.”
