Council Community Asset Committees (Section 65)

Loddon Shire Council committees are made up of dedicated community members and created to manage facilities within the Shire.

The committees are known as Section 65 Community Asset Committees, which are formal entities created under Section 65 of the Victorian Local Government Act 2020.

The purpose of establishing a committee is to delegate some of the Council’s powers, functions or responsibilities. Instruments of Delegation have been issued that outline

  • specific limits on any financial delegations and the specified purpose for which the financial delegation may be used
  • compliance with specified  governance requirements to ensure appropriate standards of probity are met, and
  • specified monitoring and reporting of the activities and performance of Community Asset Committees

Council appreciates and respects the passion and dedication of all Section 65 committee members. The contribution made by volunteers enriches our community, and provides a much broader range of services and activities than Council could provide on its own.

As Section 65 Community Asset Committees are considered part of Council operations it is important to understand that:

  • lawful actions of the Section 65 Community Asset Committees are in effect actions of Council
  • Section 65 Community Asset Committees are not incorporated and
  • Section 65 Community Asset Committees are protected by insurance applicable to Council whilst undertaking their duties on behalf of Council.

For further information on Section 65 Community Asset Committees please contact the Administration Officer Corporate Services on (03) 5494 1200.
