DR PETER HOUSTON Feb 2008
Long term Redcliffe Councillor, Dr. Peter Houston has entered the Mayoral Race for the new Regional Council of Moreton Bay.
Cr. Houston, with a total of 17 years on Redcliffe Council, feels that the initiative he had shown on Redcliffe City Council in beautifying and promoting the area has brought Redcliffe forward considerably over the last 16 years and the same initiative is needed to set up the new Council to be a constructive and productive unit, with good outcomes for all existing staff.
“New Council, New Leadership” Cr. Houston said.

Happy New Year! I hope that everyone had an enjoyable and safe Christmas and festive season.
With the start of the school year, I would urge everyone to remember to drive safely near schools and to be especially careful where buses pick up and drop off children. As you know, children can be unpredictable and drivers need to be prepared for the unexpected.
