Vale Tony Driscoll

I would like to acknowledge the sad passing of Northern Grampians Shire Mayor and Councillor Tony Driscoll.

Cr Driscoll served on council for 10 years, and always represented his community with honesty, loyalty and a steadfast dedication to making our community a wonderful place to live and work.

He was passionate about growing opportunities for the people of Northern Grampians Shire, and played a vital role in securing funding for many key projects during his years of service, including the Grampians Community Power Hub, the redevelopment of Lord Nelson Park in St Arnaud, and the recently-announced multi-million-dollar expansion of Frew Foods International in Stawell.

His passing is a huge loss for our region, and his contributions will leave an indelible mark on our community for many years to come.

I extend my heartfelt condolences to Cr Driscoll’s family and all of his colleagues at Northern Grampians Shire Council.
