This Shortcast is with the current Mayor of Wollondilly Shire Council, the honourable Matt Gould. 

Located on the outskirts of greater Sydney, the south-west LGA is currently the subject of immense development, namely at the greenfields developments at Wilton and Appin. 

Here, Gould discusses the opening of Worklife Picton, a new co-working space in the Shire's heart, the current housing crisis and the need for infrastructure for the developments within his local area.
