Liverpool Council will hold an election for a new council on September 14 2024, as planned.
There will still be a public inquiry section 438U of the Local Government Act 1993, as previously announced by the Minister for Local Government, and the council looks forward to participating.
“This is a good development for the ratepayers of Liverpool,” Acting CEO Jason Breton said.
“Council always wanted to ensure the election goes ahead for two reasons: so the voters of Liverpool do not lose their voting rights and Council does not forfeit the $1.8 million cost of staging the poll.
“It’s a double win for the residents and ratepayers – their right to vote is not taken away and ratepayers are not burdened with paying for an election that would otherwise been denied them.
