Working With The Community

Message From Andrew Ferguson

I was elected in 2017 as a Councillor on the City of Canada Bay Council.

I have lived in the Canada Bay Council area for more then 35 years and am dedicated to making our local area an even better place to live and work.

Presently I live in Mortlake but have previously lived in Rhodes, Concord and Breakfast Point. 

My children went to school locally and played soccer with Concord Juniors. I love the area and know with strong representation from elected Councillors and the community we can make make Canada Bay even better.

I am interested in issues of better urban design and planning, tree canopy, access and inclusion concerns, equity, housing affordability, social justice and environmental sustainability . However if your concern is a damaged footpath, a trip hazard or a pot hole in a road it is given priority.

In recent years our council was subject to an ICAC investigation and Inquiry. The end result was the sacking of the Mayor by the NSW Minister for Local Government. This scandal has created great reputational damage to our council.

I am committed to ensuring that the corrupt practices recently exposed do not resurface.

I have made the decision to nominate for Mayor of our great council.

At the 14 September 2024 council elections I am seeking your vote to be elected Mayor.

We need to Put Residents First and concentrate on core business. I am committed to tackling waste, improving council efficiency and focussing on core business expected by constituents. I am leading a dedicated team of local residents active in community including Maria Cirillo, David Mansford, Kathryn Zerk, Jess Handley, Vivek Goyal and Xiaojun Lisa Li. We will refresh council and make a real difference you will be proud of.

We can do better. Canada Bay is Great Place To Live- We will Make it Better.
