How you can be involved

Ways you can contribute to our decisions

As a local council, we work at the level of government closest to the community.

What you think matters to us and we want you to be involved in our activities and decisions, so we strive to ensure our community engagement is meaningful, transparent and open to everyone.

There are a number of ways to get involved:

Have your say

Talk to a Councillor

Join an Advisory Group

Speak at a Council Meeting

Attend a Council Meeting

Keep up to date

Provide your feedback directly on a project, plan or document via an online form or survey, by email or in writing. Participate in workshops or come along to a drop-in. Your feedback helps us make better decisions.

The Councillors are your representatives and are keen to hear your thoughts and address your concerns.

Project Advisory Groups draw on the local knowledge, expertise and lived experience of residents.

You can speak to an agenda item or another matter that is important to you at Council Meetings. More details are available at hornsby.nsw.gov.au/council/ about-council/meetings

You are always welcome to attend Council Meetings. By attending meetings you can gain a better understanding about the way Council works and the decision-making process.
