Did you know?

Around 97% of our Shire is declared as bush fire prone, which means that these areas being subject, or likely to be subject, to bushfire attack. 

Bush fire preparedness is a shared responsibility between the Shire, emergency service workers and volunteers and our community. With everyone playing their role, we can help reduce the risk of a fire event in the Shire.
