18 February 2026
To support advocacy efforts for councils, we're urging drought-affected councils to let us know the financial impacts they're facing.

The SA Drought Advisory Group, which LGA is a member of, has entered the next phase of its advocacy for drought-affected councils. To support this, LGA have have been asked by the sector to gather information to better understand the financial implications.

We're asking for evidence of the financial impact on councils for rate deferral and/or hardship policies.
