About Lyndon Gannon

Sydney Liberals • Oct 26, 2022

Lyndon Gannon is working hard to support small business and create stronger communities

Lyndon Gannon's political and business experience, local community participation is what motivated him to become a Liberal Councillor on the City of Sydney.


As a lifelong local of the City, Lyndon has always tried to find ways to give back, and has a long history of community service, predominately through working with youth that are at risk of developing a negative relationship with the police and juvenile justice system.


As an entrepreneur active in the City of Sydney, Lyndon knows first hand the difficulties businesses face when dealing with the City. Council has developed a culture that stymies investment and growth through red tape, rather than encouraging and celebrating enterprise.


Lyndon will champion the concerns of small and medium businesses, which is the engine room of the City’s economy, and are what makes it such a vibrant and energetic place.


Lyndon also wants to see Sydney become the undisputed cultural capital of the southern hemisphere. Sydney is blessed with beauty second to none in the world, but there is much to do to make it the global city we can be proud of.

SYDNEY LIBERALS SAVE CHRISTMAS

By Sydney Liberals • 24 Oct, 2023
The Sydney Liberals have saved Christmas from the grinches that is the NSW Labor Government, passing a notice of motion on Monday’s Council meeting to investigate the City of Sydney resurrecting the scrapped ‘Noel Sydney’ event in December. Liberal Councillor Shauna Jarrett moved her notice of motion following the NSW Government’s decision to scrap the Noel Sydney Christmas Festival hosted by Destination NSW in the 2023 NSW Budget handed down by Labor. Despite being in its first year, Labor decided Christmas was cancelled, scrapping the event that attracted more than 100,000 visitors to Sydney. Council unanimously passed the motion, calling on the Chief Executive Officer to investigate whether discretionary funding and resources are available to fund the Noel Sydney Christmas Festival for 2023 and report back to Council as to the costings and logistics of running a Noel Sydney event through the City of Sydney. “The grinches that are the NSW Labor Government may have tried to steal Christmas, but the Sydney Liberals and the City of Sydney is here to save the festival of joy and happiness that is Noel Sydney,” Cr Jarrett said. “Labor scrapping Noel Sydney after its first year of conception demonstrate they have no vision for how to revitalise Sydney into a prime destination to live, work and stay.” Cr Jarrett said. “I thank my Councillor colleagues from across the political divide including Labor, Greens and Clover Moore Independents for supporting my notice of motion.” Cr Jarrett said.
