Get to know your Elected Members
The Whyalla City Council is proud to announce the launch of a new series of columns personally penned by your elected Council Members—a resource designed to give residents a closer look at the individuals elected to represent their community and their views on topics relevant to Whyalla.
These columns provide insight into each Councillor’s interests, opinions and motivation for serving Whyalla. From long-time locals to professionals bringing fresh perspectives, each Council Member shares their story and commitment to making Whyalla a better place to live, work, and play.
The profiles highlight the diverse skills, experiences and opinions within the current Council, reflecting the many voices that contribute to decision-making and long-term planning for the city.
Residents can explore the Councillor Columns by visiting the Councillors page on the link below. You can click on each Councillor and view their current column, with new columns to be uploaded every quarter.
Mayor Phill Stone encouraged the community to take the time to learn more about their elected representatives and their opinions on topics of the day.
“These columns are more than just a snapshot—they show the human side of leadership,” Mayor Stone said.
“Our Councillors are passionate about Whyalla and work hard to serve our city with integrity and care. I hope residents take the opportunity to read their stories and views; and trust it gives them confidence to reach out to them with ideas, questions, or concerns that they’d like to see addressed on their behalf.”
