Council produces a wide range of publications from policies that set the framework for how Council operates to strategies that set the vision and direction for specific activities and reports that measure Council's achievements against plans and targets. Most of these publications are available online at no cost and can be accessed from this section. There are a small portion of documents and registers that are only available in printed form and you will need to contact Council to make arrangements to access these in person.
To view these documents you will need the free Acrobat Reader. Please note that some larger documents may take a few minutes to download, depending on your connection speed.
