Mayor fights to save his job

FRASER Coast mayor Chris Loft faces a nail-biting wait on his fate from Local Government Minister Stirling Hinchliffe after making a submission arguing against his dismissal notice.

It follows Cr Loft being issued the notice last Thursday.

The minister's office confirmed to the Chronicle the submission was received.

A spokesman from Mr Hinchliffe's office said Mr Hinchliffe will consider this submission in making his decision.
