Advisory Committee - Call for Nominations

Expressions of interest from community representatives are invited to collectively represent a diverse range of expertise and experience relative to Council’s Advisory Committees.

The establishment of Advisory Committees is in accordance with Council’s commitment to the following Mansfield Shire Council Plan 2017-21 strategic objectives;

1. Participation and Partnerships

We believe it is essential that people have opportunities to participate in all aspects of community life, including Council decision-making. Our small community will continue to prosper and succeed if we have strong partnerships with our community, other levels of government, other key service providers and private industry.

2. Community resilience and connectivity

Council’s role is to assist the community in achieving its goals. It is a partnership. Neither Council nor the community can address the challenges and issues we face alone. Through collaboration with our local communities, other agencies and governments, we will assist people to work on their own solutions to the issues that are important to them.
