MyCouncil website updated
Western Australian ratepayers and residents now have access to the most up to date information on how their councils are performing individually and against others.
DLGSC’s MyCouncil website has just received its latest update to include 2019-20 financial information.
This includes the Financial Health Indicator — a score that allows people to see the financial health of their council at a glance. The website also includes information on local government expenditure, rates levied and details of councillor remuneration and gender diversity.
DLGSC is working with the sector to review the financial ratios reported by local governments that underpin the Financial Health Indicator score.
While the review is current and ongoing, DLGSC will still publish the Financial Health Indicator scores on MyCouncil to ensure continuity, transparency and completeness of information.
