KAMAL Dhillon understands the challenges facing small businesses and our local residents, which is why he is running for the Kialla Ward in the upcoming council election.

“I have been living in Greater Shepparton for the past 15 years. I am a proud resident of the Kialla Ward, a community-minded local small business owner, husband to Preet, and father to two children. I would be proud to represent you on the Greater Shepparton City Council,” said Kamal.

A small business owner in the CBD, Kamal has been part of committees advocating with council for free parking in the CBD, and with the Victorian Parliament for bus services in the Kialla area.

“There are currently no public bus services in Kialla Lakes or Seven Creeks. I have launched a petition with the Victorian Parliament for a bus review and I will continue to advocate for bus services in our ward that our community needs.

“For over 12 years I have run small businesses in the hospitality and transport industries and understand the challenges small businesses and local communities face. Through these businesses, I am very much connected with our local community and community concerns and needs.”

Through his connection with community groups and charities like People Supporting People, Kamal understands the needs of Greater Shepparton.

“If elected I will advocate and ensure that Kialla receive our fair share of the council budget and I will address the concerns of residents including the maintenance of our Lakes, returning to the weekly red bin collection, playground shades and water stations to name a few.”
