Duncan Cunningham
DOB: 27-09-1951
Age: 56 years old
Occupation: Owner/Manager of Turanga Butchery
I was born and raised in Mount Isa and have lived here all my life. I completed a butchering apprenticeship then went to work in the mines for 26 years before my wife and I bought a local butcher shop which has developed into two shops. We have 5 children and 6 grandchildren between us.
My hobbies include Pistol Shooting, Fishing & Camping.
I was asked if I wanted to join The Peoples Group and run for councillor and as I am very passionate about the progression and people of Mount Isa, I readily agreed to be a part of Council.
Important Issues for me as a Councillor:
-
Reasonably priced land with realistic covenants' for average homeowners to build on.
-
Unsupervised groups of juveniles walking the streets late at night and breaking into properties.
-
Riverbed dwellers rubbishing the water ways.
-
Street lighting, kerbing, channelling and pot holes in roadways
-
Update existing infrastructure
-
I would like to see Mount Isa join he Tidy Towns competition and get the public to take pride in the beautification of their City.
