In a shock development on Thursday afternoon, it has been announced that Councillor Tanya Lynch has resigned from Livingstone Shire Council.
Her resignation could mean Rhodes Watson, who was the council candidate with the next highest amount of votes at the 2020 Local Government Election, could be elected.
But that depends on whether LSC opts to take that option, or go to a by-election.
In a council-released statement, Mayor Andy Ireland paid tribute to Cr Lynch’s passion for, and service to, the community of Livingstone Shire, particularly her advocacy for the tourism and business sectors following the impact of COVID-19.
