Interesting Facts

Planning and Governance are the foundation of almost everything Council does. The elected members of the community, combined with the technical expertise of staff, provide the direction and objectives of council's activities

Governance is not only a legal requirement, but a commitment to delivering value for money and prudent management that contributes to all community outcomes.

The elected members of the District are the community's representatives, making decisions on behalf of and in the interests of the community. Democracy Services oversees the election and induction processes, and then provides support to elected members throughout the triennium.

Local government impacts everyone so it is important for Council to communicate with people about what it does, what is planned, and how it may impact the District.

Local government administers over 150 legislative Acts, regulations and rules. Legal Services ensure Council administers these correctly.

What has changed since the LTCCP
