Help Shape the 2026/27 Annual Budget

South Gippsland Shire Council is inviting community feedback to help shape the 2026/27 Annual Budget.

This year, Council has brought the Budget consultation period forward to ensure community input informs decision-making from the very beginning. We’d love to hear your ideas and suggestions, keeping in mind Council’s budgetary constraints. Your feedback plays a vital role in guiding how Council invests in our Shire—helping to build a safer, stronger, and more connected South Gippsland.

Pre-Budget requests are open until Friday 21 November 2025.
Once community feedback is collected and the Annual Budget is drafted, Council will hold a second consultation for the community to review the draft budget. However, budget requests will not be accepted at this time.

Now is the time to have your say and help guide Council’s priorities for the year ahead.
Feedback closes Friday 21 November 2025.
