Congratulations to Ryan Turner who has won the Kangaroo Island Council 2019 Young Achiever of the Year Award. Other students who have been recognised this year are Joshua Keenan for Outstanding Commitment to Leadership and the Community, and Tarryn Putland for Outstanding Achievement – Academic, Sporting and Community Service. Mayor Michael Pengilly will be presenting the Awards at the Settlement Day Ceremony at the Old Mulberry Tree, Reeves Point on Saturday 27 July 2019 from 11.15am. Following the Award presentation, there will be a free community lunch in the Kingscote Council Chambers. All are welcome.

Following the release of the Ombudsman’s reports last week, Council is aware of misleading information circulating in the media.

The SA Ombudsman, under ICAC, has today released two reports concerning certain issues involving the Kangaroo Island Council’s previous Chief Executive Officer, its former Mayor, and its former CEO Performance Panel.
