Mr Rik Hart is the Administrator for Central Coast Council, appointed by the NSW Government on 26 April 2021. The local government election for Central Coast Council will be held on 14 September 2024. Until this time, the Administrator acts as the Council, undertaking the functions previously performed by the Mayor and Councillors.
