Our role in the community
We consistently deliver best-in-class leadership, services, facilities and experiences to ensure Albury is a great place to live, work and invest, today and into the future.
We are planning and preparing for our growing community; investing in infrastructure, actively attracting new and diverse businesses and ensuring that our cultural, sporting, leisure and nature experiences surpass expectations.
We serve a diverse range of people from residents to community groups, industry and business and work closely with other councils and government bodies.
We employ around 600 committed and highly skilled people, our annual budget is $145M and we are currently investing $63M a year in capital works.
Our organisation is a regional leader dedicated to partnering with other Councils, all levels of government, stakeholders, organisations and community groups on issues affecting our region. We are one of 11 member Councils in the Riverina and Murray Joint Organisation (RAMJO) and one of 15 Councils participating in Regional Cities NSW.
We’ve captured the spirit of how will connect with our community through our inspirational brand video.
