 Message from His Worship the Mayor Councillor Maurice Mills
After 36 years in public life at both local and national level, my Council colleagues have seen fit to choose me as Mayor of Ballymena for the incoming year.
I am both deeply honoured and humbled to become the 17th Mayor of Ballymena since the granting of Borough status in 1939.
During my year in office I pledge to strive to work for and with the Ballymena community in its entirety. I deem it my duty to act as a figurehead to enthuse and motivate all those across our community who work and aim for the public good.
With the expertise and dedication of the Council staff we will work with both the public and private sector to ensure that our Borough is well equipped to deal with the challenges of the global economy.
The Borough's reputation is that of a centre for excellence. I will work hard to ensure that Ballymena, its business and community can appear on the worldwide stage acting as a magnet for international business and commerce.
I therefore make my pledge to all the people of our Borough that I will spare no effort in ensuring the cause of Ballymena is advanced for all its citizens.
Councillor Maurice Mills Mayor of Ballymena
