Council Meetings

Yarriambiack Shire Council is committed to transparent, accessible and community‑focused governance. To support this commitment, Council Meetings will be recorded and published on Council’s YouTube channel, with a link to the most recent recording added to this webpage, under the applicable tab.

Recordings will be made available within six (6) business hours of the meeting’s conclusion.

This approach ensures that community members can view Council Meetings at a time that suits them, with improved audio and visual clarity and a more reliable, user‑friendly viewing experience.
