Current consultations
One of our key functions is to provide opportunities for member councils to contribute to the development of our advocacy priorities, work programs and policy positions.
SA councils vary greatly in size and resourcing and represent diverse communities. It's essential that we're aware of the views and experiences of all SA councils so we can effectively represent our members.
Council responses to our consultations also helps inform LGA submissions.
