Annual report

Each year, we produce an annual report for our community on our achievements, challenges and what's next in implementing our Delivery Program. It also includes a copy of our Council's audited financial reports.

We're required to prepare the report within 5 months of the end of each financial year (by 30 November) in line with section 428 of the Local Government Act 1993 and clause 217 of the Local Government (General) Regulation 2005.

The report is prepared in accordance with the Local Government Regulation and the Integrated Planning & Reporting Guidelines.
