Local Government Review
The Local Government Board (the Board) has handed the Minister for Local Government, Hon. Nic Street MP, the Final Report of the Future of Local Government Review.
The Board makes 37 recommendations on how our current system needs to change so that councils can meet the challenges and opportunities our communities will face in the next 20-30 years.
This is an important milestone in almost two years of extensive research, analysis, and engagement into the future role, functions, and design of Tasmania’s system of local government.
The Minister is now carrying out a final round of consultation with councils and the community. Your feedback will help the Tasmanian Government decide whether to make the changes recommended by this independent Board.
Do you agree with the Board’s recommendations, and do you want to see them implemented?
