Councillor Isaac Gordon was formally inaugurated for his second term at Brewarrina Shire Council during the Ordinary Meeting held on Tuesday, June 24, 2025, after his election was declared by the NSW Electoral Commission in a countback on Wednesday, June 11, 2025.

Following the September election last year, Brewarrina Shire Councillors voted at their first Ordinary Meeting that any vacancies would be filled through a countback election.

Councillor Gordon returns to Council filling the position left after the passing of longstanding Councillor Angelo Pippos in December 2024.

Mayor Tom Stanton said he was very pleased to have a full complement of councillors back serving the community, now the NSW Electoral Commission had finally confirmed the election results.

“On behalf of Brewarrina Shire Council and our entire community, I am delighted to welcome Councillor Isaac Gordon back for his second term on Council,” said Mayor Stanton.

“Isaac’s dedication and integrity have been valuable assets to the Shire, and I am confident that his return will further strengthen our team as we continue working together for the benefit of our region.

“The passing of Councillor Angelo Pippos was a great loss, leaving behind a legacy of service and dedication that will always be cherished. While no one can ever truly fill his place, I know that Councillor Gordon’s commitment to our shared vision will honour that legacy and ensure the continued progress of our community.

“I look forward to collaborating with Councillor Gordon and all members of Council as we continue to progress and make a real difference, always with the best interests of our community at the forefront.

“Councillor Gordon, we are glad to have you back,” concluded Mayor Stanton.

Councillor Gordon was first elected to Council in 2021.

This term, he joins his son, Councillor Douglas Gordon, Deputy Mayor Vivian Slack-Smith, Councillor Mark Brown, Councillor Belinda Colless, Councillor Trish Frail, Councillor Jason Morton and Councillor Michael Pedersen.
