Division 6 councillor Ros Heit<\/figcaption><\/figure>October 1, 2013<\/strong><\/p>\n

Newly elected Division 6 Councillor Ros Heit was sworn in by South Burnett Chief Executive Officer Ken McLoughlin at an informal ceremony in the Council’s Glendon Street offices yesterday.<\/p>\n

The swearing-in ceremony will allow Mrs Heit to begin acting immediately as the official representative for her Division, ahead of a “formal” ceremony which will be held at the Council’s next meeting on October 16.<\/p>\n

Mrs Heit was elected at the recent by-election called after the resignation of former Cr Cheryl Dalton in July.<\/p>\n

She was introduced to fellow councillors yesterday.<\/p>\n

Mrs Heit also received a briefing from Mayor Wayne Kratzmann and fellow councillors on the major issues currently before Council, and was given a copy of the LGAQ Handbook and a briefing by the CEO on the responsibilities and duties of her new job.<\/p>\n

Since Cr Dalton’s departure, fellow councillors have been handling her previous portfolio responsibilities.<\/p>\n

However these are expected to undergo a slight reshuffle following Mrs Heit’s appointment.<\/p>\n

Mrs Heit is expected to take over the Communities portfolio, which is currently being handled by Deputy Mayor Keith Campbell.<\/p>\n

The new portfolio responsibilities are likely to be:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Mayor Wayne Kratzmann – Economic Development, Tourism, Arts, Governance and Human Resources<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n
    • Cr Keith Campbell – Finance and Town Planning<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
        \n
      • Cr Damien Tessmann – Roads<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
          \n
        • Cr Barry Green – Water & Wastewater and Sport & Recreation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
            \n
          • Cr Kathy Duff – Natural Resource Management, Parks & Gardens, Waste, Indigenous Affairs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
              \n
            • Cr Deb Palmer – IT and Properties<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                \n
              • Cr Ros Heit – Communities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
