Raised on a vineyard in Mildura and currently a rural water customer, Tony brings a practical understanding of agricultural life and water use to his governance work. His approach is collaborative and community-focused, with a strong emphasis on strategic planning, stakeholder engagement, and inclusive decision-making.
