Member for Mirani, Glen Kelly MP, has launched the Mirani Biggest Survey; the largest community listening project ever undertaken in the electorate, alongside a new series of community town halls which kicked off in Eungella on Wednesday, the 13th of August.
The initiative is part of a major grassroots effort to hear directly from residents across the expansive Mirani electorate about the issues, priorities, and projects that matter most.
“The Mirani electorate has been overlooked for far too long under the previous government,” Mr Kelly said.
“It’s my job to fight for our communities and ensure their voices are heard loud and clear in Brisbane. That starts with listening, and this survey, along with our local town halls, is about making that happen.”
The Mirani Biggest Survey invites locals to provide feedback on key topics such as housing, roads, health, boat ramps, infrastructure, community safety, and sporting facilities. There is also room for suburb-specific concerns and new project ideas.
To complement the survey, Mr Kelly has announced the Mirani Town Hall Roadshow, a rolling series of face-to-face forums starting in Eungella earlier this week.
“I want to get out into every corner of our electorate — from the Pioneer Valley to Mount Morgan and hear from people firsthand. These town halls are all about open conversations and local solutions,” he said.
“The survey and the town halls go hand-in-hand — two key ways locals can help shape the future of our region.”
The survey will run for 12 months, alongside a year-long roadshow visiting communities across the electorate. Feedback will be shared with local, state, and federal decision-makers to help guide funding and advocacy.
Residents can take part online via glenkellymp.com.au/biggest-survey, by calling the Mirani Electorate Office on (07) 4806 0700, or by requesting a hard copy from the office.
“I’m calling on every resident to get involved. Whether it’s through the survey, coming along to a town hall, or dropping into the office, this is your chance to help put Mirani back on the map.”
