Help shape the 2025/26 Draft Budget

We deliver a wide range of services across a large rural shire, including libraries, emergency management, roads, waste and recycling, sport and recreation, health, and local laws. By taking part in this activity, you’re helping us understand which services matter most to you and your community.

Your feedback is key to our budget planning. It allows us to consider what resources are needed to provide the services that have the greatest impact on our community.

Your input will provide valuable information to guide us in making decisions that help us continue to provide high-quality services across East Gippsland.

Why your input matters
  • It helps us identify which services should be prioritised to best support the community.
  • It guides how we allocate resources effectively in our budget.
  • It puts a focus on enhancing the services that have the greatest positive impact on our community.

We look forward to receiving your feedback through the 'Fund It' tool below as the first stage of our 2025/26 Draft Budget community engagement.
