Sustainability features of facilities for hire

Council wants to make it easier for hirers to make sustainable venue choices as we work towards our goal of net zero by 2035.

You can consider the way you use Council's facilities in a number of ways. We have our Climate Friendly Community Projects Guide to help you once you are ready to host your event or workshop.

To reach our target of net zero emissions by 2030 we’re upgrading all Council owned facilities across the shire.

We’ll continue to update this listing as we complete energy-efficiency, electrification and renewable electricity supply upgrades at each facility.
