Payment of expenses & provision of facilities for mayor & councillors
The Snowy Monaro community is invited to share their feedback on Council's draft Payment of Expenses and Provision of Facilities for Mayor and Councillors Policy, which is open for public exhibition until Thursday October 2 2025.
Council is required to review the policy within 12 months of a local government election, with the revised policy placed on exhibition for 28 days following the completion of this review. The policy review has been completed and the consultation was endorsed at the August 2025 Ordinary Council Meeting.
Visit www.yoursaysnowymonaro.com.au/councillor-expenses-policy to view a copy of the draft policy and provide your feedback.
The revisions in this new draft align Council's policy more closely with the model code issued by the NSW Office of Local Government, and make payment limits, expense types, and claimable expenses clearer than in previous versions.
