Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner has handed down Council’s $3.6 Billion Budget for 2021/22, unveiling a record $1.2 billion infrastructure program.

The Schrinner Council is getting on with delivering for Brisbane’s residents, keeping the city’s momentum going as it continues to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic.

As usual, there’s plenty for the city at large, but locally our ward hasn’t missed out.

I’m proud to say that this Budget delivers strongly for the Chandler Ward, with just under $10 million in projects slated to start over the next financial year.

I’m also thrilled to say that this budget that continues our record investment into Public & Active Transport.
