Councillor resigns after six years

Kylie Grzybek has resigned from the City of Greater Geelong council.

Ms Grzybek has been a councillor for six years in an email said she would focus on her senior executive role at the Transport Accident Commission, and her family.

“I want to take this opportunity to thank Councillor Grzybek for her dedication to working for all residents of Greater Geelong, but particularly those within her Windermere Ward,” mayor Trent Sullivan said.

“Councillor Grzybek served as a deputy mayor under former mayor Stephanie Asher and has been a passionate advocate for the northern suburbs for many years.

“She helped secure funding and delivery of the Northern Aquatic and Community Hub, which is the biggest infrastructure project undertaken by Council outside of Central Geelong, and successfully campaigned for upgrades to multiple facilities at sporting clubs across the northern suburbs.

“On behalf of Council I wish Councillor Grzybek well and thank her for her tireless efforts as a leader in our community.”

Ms Grzybek will finish up on Friday June 2.
