Business as usual at HRCC after monitor announcement

The Local Government Minister, Melissa Horne, recently announced that a municipal monitor would be appointed to Horsham Rural City Council to work with Councillors and the Executive to guide good governance and provide regular reports and recommendations to the Minister.

While this process is being worked through, the operations of Council will continue as usual. The community should be reassured that bins will still be collected, maternal and child health appointments will still take place, lost pets will still be rescued and depot crews will still be out and about undertaking their works programs.

Likewise, projects and budget initiatives currently being undertaken by Council staff will not be impacted by this process, and Council’s day to day operational activities will not change.
