Colac Otway councillor Tosh-Jake Finnigan has resigned from the council less than two weeks before election day.
In a Facebook post, the now-former councillor said they had resigned so that they could speak freely about council issues “without being gagged by the administration.”
Finnigan said they hoped to be back in a few weeks with like-minded folks and a “mandate for sweeping change.”
The council has updated the councillor list on its website noting the resignation as of 14th October.
