About This Site 

Since 2008 this site has proven to be an excellent way for me to keep in touch with the residents of the region and especially those within Division 5′s coastal townships of Bargara, Innes Park North, Innes Park and Coral Cove.

It enables me to express my personal viewpoint on a range of issues including those which may, or may not, be in line with the official Council position. Essentially, it’s given me a greater degree of independence and a more open way in which to communicate with local residents.

The site also makes it possible for me to post articles with some of the true facts about those controversial issues which arise from time to time and which are relevant to my electorate or finance portfolio. I’m also able to post updates and a wide range of information about more routine matters such as impending roadworks, upcoming notices of motions, severe weather warnings/advices, media releases, etc.

I’ve tried to make navigation as easy as possible without all the quirky bells and whistles which often makes it difficult to find the information that you’re looking for. In an age where bureaucratic  mumbo-jumbo reigns supreme, I’ve also tried to make it a little more personal than many others that I’ve seen.

Please note that if you intend to use any of the statistics in the ‘About Division 5′ page, many of them are based on the 2006 ABS Census and will need updating when the 2011 stats become available some time around June 2012.

Feedback Welcome

Any feedback that you may have regarding more inclusions on the site or just general comments about its content would be most welcomed.
