Resources for the public and the local government sector

This is the central hub for publications related to local government in Tasmania. We provide an archive of major reviews, reports and other historical documents.

We also include guidance materials, information sheets and templates for Tasmanian councillors and council staff. The documents are designed to support good governance and the effective administration of the Local Government Act and relevant legislation.
