All local councils in NSW are independent, locally elected corporate bodies. Local communities are encouraged to have a say in what their council does and how it does it. There are a number of ways in which you can participate in council affairs:

• vote in elections, referendums or polls
• run for election as a local government councillor
• attend council meetings
• participate in council committees
• look at council documents; participate in the development of council plans or policies
• give feedback.
