Mayor on Main Points of Severance Agreement
The mayor explains the severance terms aim to keep assets and facilities usable by most ratepayers in both the Borough and the Shire. He notes the Borough held about one fifth of the assets and that the agreement seeks to protect ratepayers from large borrowing while transferring the Shire Hall and Ruby Health Centre to Borough control. The decision favors long term access and financial safeguards over market value, ensuring continued public services.
