Simon McClintock - Councillor Gladstone Regional Council

Simon McClintock - Councillor Gladstone Regional Council Councillor for Gladstone Regional Council I believe in shaping an identity for Gladstone that empowers the value of true community.

In the heart of Gladstone, where our community's pulse beats strong, I stand not just as a candidate but as a dedicated local who envisions a future where everyone can afford the priceless joy of creating enduring memories together. As a father of three young children and a husband to Sarah for 11 years, family values are not just a concept for me – they're deeply ingrained in every decision I mak

e. Beyond mere decision-making, I am committed to being a voice that echoes the heartbeat of our community. Your vote for me is a choice to forge a Gladstone where vibrant, community events and accessible local areas are not just promised but delivered. Family, in all its forms, is the cornerstone of a healthy community, and I am resolute in ensuring that your family's dreams and well-being take centre stage in every council decision. Together, let's not only set goals but turn them into a reality accessible to everyone. I see a future where our stories, struggles, and dreams matter and are considered at the decision-making table. Choosing me for the council is choosing a leader dedicated to strengthening the entrepreneurial spirit and sense of community in Gladstone. My commitment extends beyond politics; it's rooted in integrity, empathy, and verity. As a Christian, these values are not just principles but guiding lights in my life. I pledge to uphold the highest standards of honesty and sincerity as your representative. By voting for me, you're choosing a leader who believes in the power of empathy to drive positive change. From championing our unique cultural initiatives to ensuring inclusivity for those with disabilities, my leadership is about integrity, empathy, and verity. Let's build a Gladstone that's not just healthy but resilient, vibrant, and genuinely for everyone. Together, we can create a community where these core values form the bedrock of our decisions, ensuring a Gladstone that stands strong with integrity, resonates with empathy, and embraces verity in every aspect of our shared journey.

Thanks to Perk Espresso for kicking our week off strong! Great coffee, well looked after for a catchup, and caffeinated enough to take on Monday.

When major infrastructure works disrupt the ‘normal’ for an extended period, small businesses feel it. Changes to traffic, access and daily routines can have a very real impact on the businesses that rely on people simply dropping in.

So, if you’re in the area, show these local businesses a little extra love over the coming months.

Maybe park a little further away. Take the extra walk. Grab a coffee, lunch or whatever else you’d normally grab.

Those small choices can make a big difference to a small business doing it tough through a season of disruption.

Let’s help them get through it together.

CARING FOR OUR PARKS

Brian and Toby from our Central Parks crew joined me this morning to chat with around 50 Year 1 students about what goes into looking after our parks and how we can all play our part in keeping these spaces great for everyone.

They answered some fantastic questions, everything from “Why do you want to work?” to “Why don’t you cut some of the trees?” (Fun fact we learnt about heritage listed trees)

It was a great opportunity to help young minds understand that our parks don’t just look after themselves. There are people working hard behind the scenes to care for them and make sure our community has great places to play, explore and make memories.

Brian and Toby were generous with their time, energy and knowledge, and really went above and beyond.

We’re lucky to have parks legends like these two looking after our open spaces.

If you see one of our parks crew out and about, make sure you do say thanks. They really do care about what they do.

NATIONAL TREE DAY

Up bright and early with the kids to dig some holes and fill them with trees! We had a ball, invented a few new digging techniques but had with the help of a wonderful group of helpers got a hands dirty!

A bit of art and a couple free sausages later and we had made the most of a beautiful morning. Plenty of hands around to help as volunteers rolled up in numbers to get it done!

Well done to everyone involved we will enjoy watching them grow and create some more great green spaces in our community!

DEFENCE COMMUNITY DAY

What an incredible turn out for the community day on Saturday. Our family had a great time hanging out with the defence personnel, emergency services and many local organisations supporting the day.

Watching the soldiers play and interact with community across the day was incredible to watch. They were in the sand with metal detectors, hiding in bushes, chatting and discussing what defence does and generally just having a great time.

If you made it down to the day put a photo below or let me know what was your favourite part?

Thanks so much to everyone in Joint Task Force 629 and the 25/49th Royal QLD Regiment. We loved having you join us!

🛹 We’re excited to share that final works and checks are done and Agnes Water Skate Park is ready for use.

Temporary fencing has been removed and public access to the skate park is now permitted.

We encourage the community to visit and enjoy the revitalised Springs Road skate park and look forward to this asset again becoming a highly popular recreational facility for many years to come.

The $1.94M Agnes Water Skate Park Revitalisation project has been proudly funded by the Australian Government’s Growing Regions Program and Gladstone Regional Council.
