Occupation: I am a Licensed Surveyor.

Resides: I live on the family farm in Millbrook. Millbrook is a farming district located to the west of the Shire.

How long have you lived in your council?: The Sullivan family have been in Millbrook since the 1860s.

Community involvement: Represented the now abolished West Moorabool Ward for many years. Mayor four times. Have gained a good understanding of the Shire and the communities… I have been involved in many groups; the CFA, kindergarten and school committees, Landcare and others.

Associated with a political party or movement? I am not a member of any political party.

Preferencing: Paul Tatchell.

Campaign budget? Receiving financial support? I am not receiving any funds from outside sources. Funding my own campaign which I would estimate will cost me approximately $1,000.

Three most important issues in your area? The sewering of Bungaree and Wallace… To ensure equitable distribution of resources… Moorabool is not one community but approximately 20 discrete communities and it is important to acknowledge these differences and to ensure that every community in the Shire receives a “fair go.”
