Documents for public review

We have a number of documents, records and processes available on this page for public inspection.

We are committed to being accountable to the community through transparency of information, service data, performance and decision-making. Our Public Transparency Policy (PDF 216Kb) was adopted by Council on 12 August 2020 and commenced on 1 September 2020.

Council meeting agendas and minutes for the previous 8 years are available on our Minutes and past agendas page. You can email governance@merri-bek.vic.gov.au if you require access to agendas and minutes from before 2016.
