Clr Larry Whipper has welcomed Lyndall McGrath as a new member of his Community Action team.
“Lyndall has a wealth of environmental expertise which I sincerely believe will be of enormous benefit to our Community. She graduated from Wollongong University in 1988 after achieving a Bachelors of Environmental Science. She has also worked as an Environmental Consultant and produced environmental Impact Statements environmental monitoring and construction projects for the RTA; State Rail and the Electricity Commission
Her work with the RTA and the SRA involved a large amount of community consultation and state and local government liaison, giving her a valuable insight into the processes of both of these tiers of government. As well as sitting on a number of planning committees, dealing with sensitive environmental and heritage issues Lyndall has also undertaken number of social, economic and environmental assessments to ensure the environmental integrity of many large scale projects such as the M5 Motorway. She has also been a member of the Jenolan Caves Historical and Preservation Society (JCHAPS) since the early 1980’s.
Lyndall moved permanently into the Wingecarribee Shire over 7 years ago,. A major attraction was due to the cohesive community within the Wingecarribee Shire, the unique environment – both ecological and social, and it being a safe place to raise children.
Clr Whipper said that Lyndall’s environmental credentials, her concern about the lack of foresight displayed by recent planning decisions, the untapped potential of tourism opportunities and the lack of basic infrastructure maintenance to meet the needs of both retirees and young families, have struck a common chord with the values promoted by the Community Action philosophy. Being a full time mother of two children 6 and 10, and being involved in various school activities including the coaching of the basketball team, she is acutely aware of the needs of families in the shire.
I am happy to have Lyndall stand at number three on the Community Action ticket and thank her for her dedication and her desire to maintain the special values of the shire which we all know and love. Lyndall’s contribution adds significantly to the diverse skills and experience already present on the team and I am sure she will serve the people of the Shire with enormous commitment and passion.
