Council Advisory Committees

Yass Valley Council has a number of Committees and focus groups, made up of Councillors, Council staff and members of the community. All Council Committees are advisory in nature, making recommendations to Council. None of the committees have delegated decision making responsibilities, other than procedural decisions of the Committee (e.g. adopting minutes).

A list of Yass Valley Council Committees and Focus Groups can be found below. For each group's Terms of Reference and for more information regarding the Committees, please see Guidelines for Advisory Committees and Committees of Council(PDF, 1MB)
