My council?

Finding out which council area you live in can be challenging, as people often identify with their city, town, or community rather than their local government area. You might know which town you're in or near but not necessarily which council has jurisdiction. This can be especially confusing when traveling. Although council borders may change over time, most Australian state governments provide tools to help you determine your local council area. These official sources are typically the most reliable for such information.

These links open the relevant list of local government entities (councils, etc) per state government region (subject to change):

These tools help users locate their local council government region, area, or jurisdiction. With this information, individuals can search for or navigate to the relevant HazAlerts - One Site, One Source! page. It's advisable to bookmark the appropriate council page for future reference. This can be done through browser bookmarks, desktop shortcuts, or homepage shortcuts on mobile devices.

Be prepared

Although many people prefer not to contemplate worst-case scenarios, life offers no guarantees against being affected by a disaster at some point.

In Australia, advice concerning local areas may vary depending on the state of residence. It is crucial to follow directions from authorities during pending and actual disasters. You may be instructed to evacuate, stay tuned for further information, or even receive direct messages on your mobile phone with suggested actions.
