Bellingen, Nambucca mayors named

Posted September 17, 2008 14:00:00

Two of the New South Wales mid-north coast region's councils now know who will be leading them for the next four years.

Mark Troy has been re-elected Mayor of Bellingen after counting of preferences and Rhonda Hoban is the Nambucca Shire Mayor.

In Coffs Harbour, Keith Rhodes has won a big majority of the primary vote and is expected to lead the council for another term.

But in the Greater Taree, former mayor Eddie Loftus is in trouble trailing Paul Hogan.

The election count continues today.
