Updated 14/08/2009About Mayor Paul and the Shoalhaven City.
Paul Green is an independent Councilor on Shoalhaven City Council. Paul is married to Michelle and they have 6 awesome children (13-7 years). Paul Green is the current Mayor for Shoalhaven City Council which covers 49 towns and Villages http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fI031xqBdN4.
Paul & Michelle run a small business and Paul also holds a Bachelor Degree in Nursing. Paul and his family attend church regularly in Nowra. "As a father of six young children I know the challenges I have before me to provide community facilities, sporting facilities, education and jobs for our kids. My wife and I want our children to have the choice to play and work locally if they wish. I believe that strong families build strong communities. So we are committed to see our community grow together through community events on both large and small scales."

Thinking about investing in the Shoalhaven??
Go to: http://www.shoalhaven.nsw.gov.au/region/econodev/econodev.htm
Shoalhaven has around 240 voluntary organisations. It's these volunteers that run most of these community organisations and with out them very little would exist in the community. "There is no such thing as an extraordinary persons, but rather many ordinary persons doing extra ordinary things."
Some of Mayor Paul Green's Priorities
- Providing a truly great place to Work, Rest, Stay &.Play for all ages
- Cycleways & Footpath City Network Strategy
- Playgrounds & Parks Maintenance
- Safe and accessible Recreational Fishing & Sporting Facilities
- Activation of Shoalhaven River Frontage with a hotel, boardwalk and water fountain.
- Continued Growth & Prosperity of Shoalhaven as a City through further investment.
- Community Facilities, particularly those that service non profit organisations.
- Decent Roads both Rural and Urban roads.
- Good Drainage Management across the City
- Working with the thoughts of Climatic Changes.
- Recycling & Reusing Shoalhaven's Waste Stream and keeping it out of land fill.
- Transparency in governance through the implementation of e-democracy and e-forums
- Responsible Development while balancing the beautiful environment we enjoy.
This is not an exhaustive list but just some things I see as important issues for us as councillors. You may have some further suggestions that need to be listed. Please send suggestions to greenp@shoalhaven.nsw.gov.au or use this form
