Environment Reference Group

The Environment Reference Group, consisting of councillors and citizen members, deals with a range of environmental and sustainability issues.

The functions of the Environment Reference Group include:

  • providing a recognised forum to achieve better coordination, integration and implementation of Council’s policies with a sustainability focus
  • improving awareness and information sharing across Council departments and the community regarding sustainability issues
  • identifying policy initiatives and actions and to include these in Council’s Management Plans, with particular reference to the Reference Group.


No Environment Reference Group meetings will be held for the remainder of 2024.
