LGA CEO Search, Pay Debate Heats Up
Description
The Local Government Association in South Australia has been searching for a new CEO for over a year, with the interim boss, Karen Teaha, holding the fort. The previous CEO, Clinton Jury, left to lead a homeless nonprofit. The search has been criticized amid political pressure for cuts, with Sarah Game from the Fair Go party planning to scrap the local council setup, including high CEO pay. Reactions are mixed, with One Nation calling for reforms and the Property Council questioning the value of city councils. The LGA defends its role, highlighting cost savings and essential services. The state government has no plans to axe local government, and the CEO hire is expected to spark further debate.
