City of Salisbury is consistently monitoring the evolving threat of COVID-19 (coronavirus) in order to determine the most effective actions in line with advice from the State and Federal Governments and other key agencies.
The status of COVID-19 is rapidly changing and an internal team made up of representatives from across the organisation is in regular contact to ensure our responses are timely.
Council's primary concern remains the health and welfare of all members of our community and our staff and the delivery of essential services.
We have put in place a number of measures to promote safety and reduce the potential for the spread of COVID-19.
We'll continue to keep you updated on our social media platforms and website.
