Governance Rules and Public Transparency Policy

[Thank you for your interest in the draft Governance Rules and Public Transparency Policy. Submissions are now closed and we have reviewed the feedback received during the submission period. These documents have now been finalised and were adopted by Council on 11 August 2020. Final copies can be found in the Document Library on this page.

We are developing new Governance Rules, and a new Public Transparency Policy in line with the Local Government Act 2020 (Vic). These documents are intended to formalise Council’s commitment to good governance, as well as open and transparent decision-making.

We have prepared draft documents based on guidance materials from the state government and would like to consult with the community before finalising these documents.
