Governance & Administration
Bulloo Shire Council,
I find the Australian Municipal Yearbook very useful, it is kept within hands reach and is regularly used to gain contact information / details for other Councils in our state and New South Wales. I also find the advertisements extremely useful when sourcing products and services. The index at the back enables quick referencing.
Compliance & Business Engagement Governance
Health & Safety Queensland, Department of Justice and Attorney-General,
The book has been hot property in my office. We all find it very useful in being able to speak to counterparts in different jurisdictions. it has saved us all a lot of time, effort and stress! I look forward to receiving the extra copies. Thanks very much.

Cassowary Coast Regional Council,
I do find it useful to identify various Queensland Council in particular to get contact details and locations. Even though we went through amalgamations back in 2008 (and de amalgamations more recently) it is sometimes difficult to recall the names of the new Councils, so the book is handy in that regard too.
Coorong District Council
Just wanted to provide some feedback on the Australian Municipal Yearbook, I have it on my desk next to my phone in easy reach. It’s great for referencing other Councils, in particular other officers in a similar role to myself. Handy little publication!
Works Dept
Shire of Brookton,
I find the Australian Municipal Handbook a great tool for sourcing the correct officers in other surrounding Shires, Towns & City Councils. As we are a rural based Shire we tend to seek staff from surrounding areas to share training to make up numbers, have machinery demonstrations and ask for information on how they do things etc.
I have worked in Local Government for 11 years and have developed some good contacts but as you are probably aware people that work in Local Government tend to relocate to other councils throughout their careers so it helps to keep in touch that way also.
Purchasing and Stores
City of Busselton,
I find the AM yearbook a handy tool for referencing and local gov contacts, it sits in my office and is accessible to all works staff whom have used it on numerous occasions to outsource suppliers for quotations and contracts to help complete major and minor works on various City projects
College Principal
Kawana Waters State College,
“What a great little resource!
This has helped us quickly and easily locate schools interstate with whom we would like to professionally share.
It has taken the guess work out of our searches.
