Local Government Award Mosman Council

Ms FELICITY WILSON (North Shore)

—I rise to congratulate Mosman Council on their recent recognition at the Local Government New South Wales Gala Awards night. Mosman Council were acknowledged for the 'Best Local Youth Week' as well as being awarded the Leo Kelly OAM Arts and Culture Award for 'New Sacred' and finally, Mosman Council were also nominated for a Local Government NSW RH Dougherty Award – for 'Innovation in Special Events' for their T5 Tank Sound Project. The Leo Kelly OAM Arts and Culture Awards are in memory of the late councillor Leo Kelly, a champion of the arts. New Sacred is an exhibition developed by Mosman Council in partnership with City of Parramatta Council and resulted in efficiencies greater than could normally be achieved by the two separate councils. I congratulate the staff at Mosman Council on this fantastic initiative and their work in celebrating our local community.
