Committees

Council is represented on a broad range of local and regional organisations and community groups.

Elections

NSW Local Government elections are conducted every four years and voting is compulsory.

Advocacy

Our invitation to the NSW and Federal Government is simple - let's work together to ensure Singleton thrives.

Corporate Structure

The elected Council appoints the General Manager, and the General Manager appoints all other staff. Council is divided into directorates to ensure efficient and effective operations.
