City of South Perth Mayor Greg Milner has been provided a mayoral vehicle since 2019 and according to council records he had recorded more than 32,000km in travel up to 2024. “I’m not sure I’ve asked this question before, but I note that the City of Belmont prevents a mayor vehicle being used for electioneering purposes,” Cr Russell said. “The Mayoral Vehicle is local government property. Earlier this year, The West had raised questions about missing logbooks and historical reimbursement for private travel. At the time, he argued the vehicle represented unnecessary spending and that the mayor should instead use a private vehicle and claim mileage.
