A Day in the Scenic Rim – Conversations That Count

On our visit to the Scenic Rim in early June, we spent the day in focused discussions with Scott Buchholz MP, zeroing in on what it takes to deliver real outcomes for our region. It was also the perfect moment to reintroduce Cr Nicole Jonic in her new role as Chair of RDA Ipswich & West Moreton.

Fueled by strong coffee and big ideas, we explored the key issues shaping the Scenic Rim’s future — from job creation and infrastructure to investment strategies and long-term planning.

Key highlights included:
🔹 Refreshing the regional jobs portal to better serve locals
🔹 Collaborating across all levels of government on community fact sheets
🔹 Supporting the ag study to showcase the Scenic Rim’s strengths
🔹 Tracking success stories through the Growing Workforce Participation Grant

Big thanks to Scott and his team for their hospitality and shared commitment to strengthening our region. Conversations like these remind us what’s possible when we work together.
