  • Kerbside waste collections will return to normal schedules from today, along with public litter bin collection and library services. The Australian Services Union (ASU) has stopped all their industrial action affecting these services, officially notifying Council this week. If your bin has not been collected, please leave it out so we can collect it soon. Learn more.

Municipal Emergency Management Plan

Like all municipalities in Victoria, Merri-bek has its own Municipal Emergency Management Plan for managing natural disasters and emergencies at the local level.

Emergency events such as structural fires, flood, storms, extreme heat and pandemic may occur and require a collaborative and coordinated response.

The Municipal Emergency Management Plan developed by the multi agency Municipal Emergency Management Committee sets out arrangements for preparing for, responding to and recovering from emergencies at the local level.
