Decision details

Memorandum by the Chief Executive Officer

To Council:

The Lord Mayor and Councillors represent the City of Sydney on various external bodies such as the Southern Sydney Regional Organisation of Councils (SSROC).

Following the local government elections, some of Council’s previously appointed representatives to these bodies are no longer Councillors and it is therefore necessary for Council to appoint new representatives.

Established in 1986, SSROC is a voluntary regional grouping of councils located in the southern Sydney metropolitan area. SSROC provides a forum for member councils to deal with common issues, particularly those that cross local government area boundaries. Key areas of focus include planning, environment, transport, sustainability, procurement and waste management.

The City is represented by either elected Councillors or Council staff on the external body – Southern Sydney Regional Organisation of Councils (SSROC).

Council is entitled to nominate two delegates and two alternate delegates to SSROC.
