The City of Albany is inviting residents from the city centre, Middleton Beach, Emu Point, Mira Mar, Yakamia, Spencer Park and Lockyer to come and have a yarn with Councillors at the first City Chat event this month.
Albany Public Library will host the forum on Wednesday, August 28 from 5.30pm to 7.30pm.
Mayor Dennis Wellington said City Chat was part of Council’s continued focus on communication and engagement with the community, giving residents the chance to catch up with Councillors in an informal way.
“We’ve just adopted a new Communications and Engagement Strategy after extensive community consultation, which is focussed on ensuring we are open and transparent with people about what Council is doing and why, and we give them a chance to talk to us about the things important to them,” he said.
“City Chat is part of that process and we are keen to listen to the views and aspirations of community and these friendly forums are a great way for residents to meet us in an informal setting, so we’ll continue to hold these meet and greet-type events every quarter at various locations around our municipality.”
The City acknowledges the Frederickstown Progress Association and the Albany Chamber of Commerce and Industry for supporting the event.
