Mayor, Cr Susannah Pearse
Cr Pearse has a strong belief in the Moree Plains, its people and its potential, which led to her putting her hand up for council, serving as Deputy Mayor in the 2021-2024 term and now taking up the helm as Mayor. With professional experience spanning the corporate sector and state and local government, Cr Pearse is keen to see Moree Plains Shire Council combine the best of both worlds - driving performance and efficiencies whilst maintaining a focus on real benefits for the community.
Cr Pearse has lived both in the Moree township and on farm near Pallamallawa, where she currently runs a 6th generation farming business with her husband and their three children. She is currently completing a Master of Business Administration through UNSW.
