Standing for Council election
Published on 28 March 2024
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 Municipal Association Victoria is delivering a number of information sessions for the community and prospective candidates. These sessions can be attended either in-person or online and will cover:
- 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
