Publicity and public relations

Unique IDAY-0024DescriptionManagement and administration of publicity and public relations for the Council, through avenues such as media coverage and special events arranged to enhance the public image of the Council.

Establishment of Agency 109 Office of the Lord Mayor in 1991-1992 resulted in much closer attention being given to media relations.CreationAlthough 'soft news' media stories about the Council date from at least 1949 (when the Sydney Morning Herald ran an editorial and a pictorial feature on incoming Lord Mayor E C O'Dea), further research is needed to identify the development of a formal public relations responsibility within the Council administration.
