Wodonga Council is undertaking a necessary organisational restructure to streamline its service delivery and achieve a sustainable operating position through a reduction in its operating budget.A report was adopted at the March council meeting that endorsed CEO Matthew Hyde’s capacity to act under the provisions of the Local Government Act to implement changes to services.A financial assessment of the council, undertaken by external consultants, made recommendations on addressing the underlying deficit while continuing to deliver services to and for the community.This process informed the streamlining of the Community Development directorate, which incliudes the portfolios of Customer Focus, Sport and Recreation, Marketing and Engagement, Asset Management, Sustainability and Economic Development being absorbed into the Infrastructure and Growth and Corporate and Community directorates. The restructure has resulted in three redundancies across the organisation and redeployment of some staff where there were suitable vacancies.
