Council supplementary roll

If you are not enrolled on the state electoral roll you may be eligible to register on the council supplementary roll if you are:

• a resident or a non-Australian citizen who has lived at your residential address for one month or more
• an owner of an organisation or business
• an owner of a holiday home
• a sole owner, or group of owners, of a rateable property
• a sole occupier, or group of occupiers, of a rateable property
• a landlord of rateable property.

In accordance with section 15(5a) of the Local Government (Elections) Act 1999, council must purge the council's supplementary roll on 1 January of every election year. Therefore, all landlords, organisations, business owners or occupiers, and resident non-Australian citizens, must re-enrol from January 1 of every election year to be eligible to vote, with the exception of the City of Adelaide.

If you are unsure whether you are enrolled on the council supplementary roll, contact your local council.

Candidates wishing to nominate will select this option, after which they can proceed to nominate within their respective election.

JESSER, Roger Grant

I have lived in Orroroo since 1972. I completed my schooling here. I completed a mechanical trade here in a local service station, worked as a parts interpreter at another local garage, managed the Orroroo hotel at one stage and participated in many sporting clubs, holding several positions in all clubs from bar manager to president. This demonstrates my interest and commitment I have for the town and the people in it. As I am now retired, I now have more time to contribute to the town by participating in council decisions and activities. I have always successfully worked in team environments as I believe they produce the best outcomes. I feel that I would be a worthy member of council because of my commitment to the local area.

I care deeply about our town’s future and want to represent the everyday people who call it home. I’ll listen, ask questions, and work hard to keep Orroroo moving forward.

CLARKE, Julia

I have lived in the Orroroo/Carrieton District Council for a total of 15 years. Residing about 25 kilometres north of Carrieton I assist in the running of our grazing property. After initially living in the council area for 12 years we moved to the Burra area with our children for about 13 years and have relished living back in this area for the last three years. I am passionate about agriculture and supporting those living in regional areas. I have committed myself to voluntary roles in both the council areas I have resided in.
