Baw Baw Shire Council is heading to Labertouche on Thursday 2 September for a Council Pop-up session. All residents are invited to come along and speak to their Councillors and senior Council team members about the issues that matter to them.
By visiting people where they live, the Council Pop-up program aims to make it easier for residents in areas further from major townships to engage directly with Council. It’s a great opportunity to meet face-to-face with Councillors and staff to share ideas, raise concerns, or ask questions.
Labertouche Council Pop-up
When: 4.00pm to 6.00pm on Thursday 2 September Where: Labertouche Hall, 440 Labertouche Road, Labertouche
Please note that Council Pop-ups will be subject to current COVID restrictions. Physical distancing measures will be in place. No appointments are required, however, attendees will need to provide contact details on arrival.
