Local Leaders - Cr Rob Amos, Mayor Campaspe Shire Council

Today's guest on Local Leaders is Cr Rob Amos, the Mayor of Campaspe Shire Council.

"I love what I do. It's very, very busy, particularly this year with the floods recovery stuff.  But I absolutely love it."

Cr Amos is in his first term as a councillor.

He talks about the challenges of learning and adapting to the role, while dealing with challenges such as floods and  the ongoing recovery process. He believes that there needs to be more trust and flexibility in the funding and decision-making processes for local councils.

Cr Amos has a background in emergency management and is focussed on improving the shire's emergency management plan.

He is passionate about serving the community and making a positive impact as a councillor and mayor.
