Peter Flannery, the current Mayor of Moreton Bay City, was first elected in 2020. He aims to transcend politics and work collaboratively with both Federal and State Governments to address the infrastructure and service demands of their expanding population.

In the 2024 local government elections, he is running unopposed to lead Queensland’s third-largest city, viewing it as an endorsement of the city's current trajectory and his leadership. Flannery is eager to continue the progress made during his tenure for another four-year term.
