Former Victorian council CEO David Turnbull has been posthumously awarded an Order of Australia Medal for service to local government.
David left a strong legacy in the sector over 40 years, including 21 years as CEO and director at the City of Whittlesea, and four years as CEO at Mitchell Shire Council before his death from cancer in 2020.
Mitchell Shire Mayor Fiona Stevens welcomed news of the award, saying it was a great honour to see Mr Turnbull’s legacy and commitment recognised with the Order of Australia medal.
