Core members of the Local Disaster Management Group (LDMG) met last week and moved to stand down as Ex-TC Kirrily no longer poses a threat to the region.
The LDMG Chair Lyn McLaughlin thanked the community for their resilience and cooperation during the weather event.
"I am proud of how our residents and businesses have supported each other and followed the advice of the authorities,” Ms McLaughlin said.
“I also want to acknowledge the hard work and dedication of emergency services, Ergon, external agencies, council staff and volunteers who have been on the front line of the response and recovery efforts.
“Council operations have returned to normal, with all facilities and services resuming their regular hours and functions.
“Council staff are also continuing to clean up the affected areas, especially the parks and green spaces after priority areas of roads and footpaths were completed.
“Council asks for your patience and understanding as we work to restore these public spaces to their pre-disaster condition.
“I’d like to remind the community to remain vigilant and prepared for any future weather events as disaster season is not over yet.”
