Final council meeting of 2023 hears the mayor’s year in review, new leases for tennis, community sheds and community centre, the former Ministry of Food in d'Arcy Doyle Place set to be transformed into an arts hub, what is the future of the old North Ipswich woollen mills and the battle over bad smells at Swanbank continues. Mayor Teresa Harding joins the show to wrap up the council year following the December 7 meeting of Ipswich City Council.
