Baw Baw Shire Council is opening the community budget submission process for Council's 2025/26 Draft Budget at the end of January this year, providing residents with more time and opportunity to have their say on Council's investments and priorities for the upcoming financial year.
In previous years, the community budget submission process at Baw Baw Shire has taken place in May, but this year we're opening consultation earlier so that our residents can help inform the budget from the very beginning of the process.
This year, the community budget submission process will be open from Tuesday 28 January on Council's online community engagement platform, Baw Baw Connect.
For the second year running, our community consultation and draft budget submission process will take place on Baw Baw Connect, offering enhanced flexibility and a more user-friendly interface for the public.
Budget submissions may be made in the following ways:
Online via Baw Baw Connect at www.bawbawconnect.com.au/budget
In writing and posted to Baw Baw Shire Council, PO Box 304 Warragul 3820
