This morning MidCoast Council mayor David West described the resignation decision as “disappointing” and congratulated Mr Handford on his work and achievements since the merger in May 2016.
“This is disappointing news for MidCoast. As councillors we have been building on the great work undertaken by Glenn and the staff since May 2016. Glenn has positioned the council for success and now our job is to continue to build on this work,” Cr West said.
“Glenn will be remembered for his passion and commitment to the success of MidCoast Council.”
