A former Brisbane lord mayor will take the leading role of the Lockyer and Somerset water collaborative as it pushes to secure a sustainable water supply for irrigators.
High-profile leader Graham Quirk was on Wednesday appointed as the new collaborative chair.
Mr Quirk said he was thrilled to be advocating for the region’s water security and would continue with the momentum outgoing chairman Stephen Robertson had fought to get moving.
“I’m very excited to be joining the team at such a crucial time and am confident Stephen’s dedication to the role over the past two and a half years has the project well positioned for success,” Mr Quirk said.
