In accordance with the Local Government Act 2009 and the Local Government Regulation 2012, Council must allow the public to inspect documents on the local government's website.

The following categories of documents are available.

  • Administrative Access

If you have been unable to find what you are looking for on our website, please contact the Director of Corporate Services, who will advise whether it can be released administratively.
