At its meeting on Tuesday, 21 July 2026, the Bushfire Advisory Committee endorsed Brant Lehmann as the Chief Bush Fire Control Officer.
Brant brings considerable experience to the role and will be supported by dual Deputies - Jeremy Lobb and Daniel Carrotts.
The Shire extends its sincere appreciation to outgoing Chief Bush Fire Control Officer Bob Jones for his tireless service over the past three years.
Bob’s commitment, leadership and calm guidance have been invaluable, particularly throughout the exceptionally demanding 2025/26 bushfire season. Bob’s contribution has required an enormous commitment of time and energy and has helped protect our community through some very challenging circumstances.
Thank you, Bob, for your outstanding service to the Shire and the Boddington community.
