## Resource

Adelaide Hills Council has ousted CEO Greg Georgopoulos after just over a year, handing him a six-figure severance as they pivot toward a new leadership direction. Jade Ballantine, the environment and infrastructure director, is now acting CEO while the council launches a search for a permanent replacement. This isn’t an isolated case — Karoonda East Murray’s CEO Scott Reardon has also stepped down to pursue new opportunities, leaving both councils in transition. Across South Australia, local government leaders are exiting at an accelerating pace, signaling a wave of change in regional governance.
