Fewer than 10 people attended Thursday (September 27)
night’s launch of Ian Christoe’s campaign for election to the City of Greater
Shepparton City council.
Ian,
who is the officially the Greens candidate for City of Greater Shepparton
Council elections on Saturday, October 27, launched his campaign at Noble Monks
restaurant in Maude Street.
Ian
stood for council in 2008 and missed election by the narrowest of margins – one
vote. A re-count did not help.
An
Undera farmer is eager to be a part of a council the works to create a city
that is less damaging to our environment and yet ensures that those who live
here can live a life that is contented, rewarding and fulfilling.
Ian
felt it important that he make his views clear from the outset in the hope of
avoiding any discordant disputes later on and so from the outset of his
campaign has gladly declared his association with the Greens Party.
His
campaign is being maintained on a miniscule budget and those eager to support
him can do so through a Greens Party donation page - https://vic.greens.org.au/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=217.

Those
donate cash to the campaign, but eager to help in some physical sense should
contact Ian direct.
Among
those at the later-September launch was the artistic director of the annual SheppARTonFestival, John Head.
He
was generous in his praise of the existing council pointing to regular
secretarial-like help it provides and the wonderful work it has done in raising
the public image of arts in Shepparton, including the creation of purpose built
individual entrance for the Shepparton Arts Museum (SAM).
Response
to climate change demands many-facetted approach beginning with private
undertakings, then your respective parts of the community, your Local
Government and then State and Federal Governments.
