Following the September 2012 New South Wales Local Government Elections, a 10 member Council was elected, replacing the council elected in 2008. Michael Regan was re-elected as Mayor while his renamed 'Your Warringah' (From 'Wake Up Warringah') ticket gained a majority of six seats on the council. Apart from Regan, the only other members of the previous council to be re-elected were Independent Councillors De Luca and Giltinan, making up two of the four Independents on the council. On 23 October 2012, Cr. Giltinan was elected as Deputy Mayor.

Famous quotes containing the word council:

    “Daughter to that good Earl, once President
    Of England’s Council and her Treasury,
    Who lived in both, unstain’d with gold or fee,
    And left them both, more in himself content.

    Till the sad breaking of that Parliament
    Broke him, as that dishonest victory
    At Chaeronea, fatal to liberty,
    Kill’d with report that old man eloquent;—”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “I haven’t seen so much tippy-toeing around since the last time I went to the ballet. When members of the arts community were asked this week about one of their biggest benefactors, Philip Morris, and its requests that they lobby the New York City Council on the company’s behalf, the pas de deux of self- justification was so painstakingly choreographed that it constituted a performance all by itself.”
    —Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    “There by some wrinkled stones round a leafless tree
    With beards askew, their eyes dull and wild
    Twelve ragged men, the council of charity
    Wandering the face of the earth a fatherless child....”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
