We welcome the latest allocations through the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program today but are disappointed inner-city #councils aren’t eligible for this round.

Our Housing Australia Future Fund is about people.
Thousands of new social and affordable rental homes for some of our most vulnerable.
The Liberals and Greens should stop standing in the way of support for these Australians and help pass our housing legislation.

Capital cities have been disproportionally affected by the pandemic. So it was good to catch up with Lord Mayors from across Australia to discuss shared efforts to revitalise the engine rooms of Australia’s economy.

Today, mayors & councillors from some of the nation’s most flood damaged regions released a statement.
Their message to the Fed Govt is clear: Climate change is hurting our communities & we need more support to protect communities from catastrophic climate shocks.

Always inspiring to work with my capital city Mayoral colleagues - meeting 4 ministers & 3 shadows in just a few hours. We’re speaking for our cities & sectors hit by COVID, arts & culture, university education, hospitality #mayorsunite @LordMayorMelb @bne_lordmayor @sandyver

Huge mistake for @ScottMorrisonMP to discount working with cities & Mayors to get big reductions in Oz emissions. Urban areas create 70% of emissions & we’re already delivering climate solutions. Can do more if PM works with us! #auspol #DontDismissCities @CCCLM01 @Mayors4Climate
Scott Morrison inches Australia towards 2050 net zero emissions but distances himself from 'inner city' types, reports @jamesglenday ab.co/3xb1v30 #auspol

Big win for @cityofmelbourne & @brisbanecityqld as @HighCourtofAus hangs up on @Telstra appeal over supersize payphone cabinets. LIFD should not be used to erode #localgov's planning role. bit.ly/3wYPuOi
