Poll to gauge community view on the question of the Mayoral Referendum

Most people are aware by now that on 14 September 2024, during the local government elections, voters in Kiama will face a significant decision via a referendum: should the method of electing the mayor be changed? Currently, the nine councillors elect the mayor, but Kiama is asking whether you would prefer a popularly elected major in the future


Hopefully, also most people are aware by now, that The Bugle has taken the initiative to organise a public debate to explore the pros and cons of the referendum. This will take place on July 31 starting at 6 pm, at the Kiama Leagues Club and all are welcome to attend. 


You will hear the For and Against arguments, articulated by: 

We would like to ‘test the waters’ to ascertain what the community is currently thinking and a second poll will be run after the debate which Kiama Community Radio will be sharing.    


You can vote now as the poll is open until Weds 31 July at 5pm.
