It will be business as usual for Roper Gulf Regional Council after Mayor Tony Jack resigned on August 8 in order to run as a candidate in the 2016 Northern Territory election.
Mayor Jack formalised his nomination this week and Chief Executive Officer Michael Berto said the leadership change would have no impact on the operation of the Council.
Deputy Mayor Judy MacFarlane will assume the role of the Council’s Principal Member following the resignation, in accordance with Section 46 of the Local Government Act.
