Stand for Council
Local democracy hinges on the need for councils to represent the diverse needs and aspirations of our local communities.
This year’s council elections are an opportunity for Victorians to elect the candidates who they think best represent, at the local level, their vision and interests for a better, stronger and more sustainable future.
In partnership with Victorian councils, the MAV is delivering a number of information sessions for the community and prospective candidates. These sessions can be attended either in-person or online.
By attending one of these sessions, participants will be provided with information about:
- Local government and the important role councils play for our local communities
- The role and responsibility of a Councillor, Mayor, Deputy Mayor and CEO
- The election process and candidate requirements
- What newly elected councillors can expect soon after the elections
- Councillor training and development opportunities
Details for Towong Shire's regional information session are:
Thursday 13 June: Goulburn Ovens Murray Session 2
Host: Wangaratta Rural City Council
