Honouring mayor, councillors, who served Warren selflessly WARREN Shire Council recently commemorated and remembered long-serving councillors ahead of the Saturday, September 14 Local Government elections The Shire bid farewell to several long-serving and dedicated councillors ahead of the weekend poll, as well as paying tribute to one local rep, who is no longer with us; Among those retiring, are Mayor, Councillor Milton Quigley; Cr Kevin Taylor, Cr Heather Druce, Cr Katrina Walker, and the late Councillor Ron Higgins, who passed away earlier this year. Their collective service has been instrumental in shaping the direction and growth of Warren Shire over the past several decades, a Council spokesperson said. Cr Quigley, who has served Warren Shire Council since 2004, is stepping down after two decades dedicated service, including six years as Mayor.

Known for his steady leadership and commitment to the community, Cr Quigley has been a guiding force through numerous challenges, including significant community infrastructure projects and navigating the aftermath of five disaster declarations, Warren General Manager, Gary Woodman, said. “Milton’s wise counsel has been invaluable to the Council, the community, and myself,” Mr Woodman said. “His ability to lead with a steady hand, and provide clear direction during challenging times, has earned him the respect and admiration of all those who have had the privilege to work with him; his support has been crucial in helping us achieve significant milestones, and we are deeply grateful for his service,” he added.
