MICHELLE GARRARD SETS A RECORD
MICHELLE Garrard has set a record by being re-elected to her fourth term as deputy Lord Mayor of Parramatta. No other councillor has served a full term of council in that position, Cr Garrard said. While the deputy comes up for election by fellow councillors every year, the Lord Mayor serves a two-year term. Lord Mayor Bob Dwyer’s term ends at the local government election next September. The council elections were due this September, but Covid-19 pushed it to next year. Cr Garrard was elected as part of the Our Local Community (OLC) team on council in 2017. The only other nominee for the deputy’s position was Labor’s Patricia Prociv.
