Why do we need it?
PART 1
Why do we need Council?
There are three kinds of government in Australia:
Federal government (also called the Commonwealth Government)
• Decides on matters that affect the whole country.
• The leader is the Prime Minister.
• Examples of responsibilities include:
- telecommunications
- postal services
- foreign affairs
- immigration
- pensions
- customs
- defence and
- trade.
State government
• Decides on matters that affect each state (is called the Territory Government in the Northern
Territory and the ACT).
• The leader is the Premier (states)/Chief Minister (territories).
• Examples of responsibilities include:
- public hospitals
- conservation
- fire brigade
- main roads
- emergency services
- education and
- railways.
Local government
1
• Each individual local authority area is governed by a council.
• Each council plays an important role in improving the livability of their communities by
providing a range of important services and facilities.
• The leader is the Mayor.
• Examples of responsibilities include:
- community facilities
- libraries
- parks
- sewerage
- waste disposal
- animal control
- planning
- local roads and
- building approvals.
The federal and state governments are established under the Australian Constitution. Councils
are set up by state legislation. In Queensland, their powers come mainly from the Local
Government Act, which is administered by the Queensland Department of Local Government,
Community Recovery and Resilience.
Traditionally, councils have provided services such as roads, water supply and sewerage, but
more and more they are becoming involved in the social, economic and cultural development of
their communities, and in improving local living environments.
Looking after essential infrastructure
Roads, parks and public works
•
•
•
•
building new roads and bridges
controlling traffic flow
providing and maintaining car parks
building and maintaining community/neighbourhood centres and other public
facilities and
• caring for parks and gardens.
Water and sewerage
Councils collect and treat sewerage and trade waste from industries.
Councils care for the local water supply by:
• storing and treating water for drinking
• piping water to homes, businesses and factories and
• removing stormwater through drains.
Flood control
Councils reduce the risk of flood damage by:
• building drainage systems
• constructing levee banks and
• controlling development on flood plains.
2
Looking after the environment
Environmental protection
Councils are responsible for regulating activities that affect the quality of the environment.
Land use
Councils control and regulate how land is used in their area.
They decide:
• where commercial development takes place
• where housing developments should go
• what areas are protected as bushland and reserves and
• how many buildings can go in a certain area.
Waste disposal
Our communities generate large amounts of waste. Councils:
• arrange for waste to be collected and recycled
• operate tips and landfills and
• clean streets, footpaths, parks and other public areas.
Control of declared pests and noxious weeds
Councils play an active part in controlling declared pests and noxious weeds.
It is important to keep harmful plants and pests under control.
Building control
Plans for all new buildings must be approved.
This is to make sure they are safe and well built.
Anyone who wants to build or alter a house or
building must first obtain approval. Councils can
give this approval.
3
Looking after people
Community development
Councils work with their communities to provide a wide range of services, including
community and neighbourhood centres and activities for young people. They also work
in partnership with other levels of government through programs designed to enhance
community wellbeing.
Recreation and cultural development
Some councils support arts activities, festivals and
other special events. Many councils provide:
• libraries and art galleries
• community events
• public spaces for community use
• entertainment centres
• parks, public gardens and playing fields
• swimming pools and tennis courts
• boating facilities and
• sports centres.
Public health and safety
Councils help keep their communities healthy by:
• controlling mosquito breeding
• destroying rats and mice
• making sure public buildings are clean
• providing public toilets
• registering dogs and collecting stray animals
• running immunisation programs and
• ensuring buildings are safe and well built.
Promoting economic growth
Councils also encourage and attract businesses to establish in their area, which in turn
creates jobs for local people.
4
Who works for Council?
Chief Executive Officer
Every council employs a chief executive officer, who is the link between council and its
employees. Their job is to:
• provide executive leadership to the organisation
• implement council policies and decisions
• manage council operations and
• keep councillors informed.
Other occupations
Councils are often the biggest employer in their
respective communities.
Occupations include:
• planners and engineers
• accountants and clerical officers
• road workers and gardeners
• development and health officers
• librarians and animal control officers
• laboratory technicians and
• computer programmers and surveyors.
Paying for what councils do
There are four main ways in which councils raise money to fund their facilities and services.
Rates: a form of general taxation by which revenue is raised, based on valuations
of land, to finance the general functions of council.
Utilities charges: usually consumer-based. In other words, they are charges paid
for services received such as water, sewerage and rubbish collection.
Grants and subsidies: Councils receive money from state and federal governments. This
may be via grants. On some occasions councils can decide how that money will be spent;
on other occasions the grant is for a specific purpose. Councils also receive funding to help
them meet some of the costs of providing infrastructure such as water supply and sewerage
systems. Those subsidies usually represent a percentage of the cost of the project.
Administration fee: Some council services involve a fee, including dog registrations, building
approvals and rubbish tip charges, to defray the cost of administering and processing
licences etc.
Loans: Like individuals and businesses, councils often have to borrow money for major
projects.
5
What do Councillors do?
Councillors are elected to represent the interests of everyone in the community. Their role is
to make decisions relating to facilities and services in their local area. They make local laws to
help provide a safe and orderly community.
Councillors have regular meetings at which they make decisions and discuss local issues.
Meetings are held at the council chambers.
The Mayor presides at council meetings and represents the council on formal occasions. As
well as council meetings, Councillors attend committee meetings. Each committee deals with
specific matters, (see p.8).
Members of the public can attend all council and committee meetings.
Electing your council
A council consists of a Mayor and Councillors. The people who live in each local government
area choose who they want to be on their council. Local government elections in Queensland
are held every four years (the next one is due in 2016).
Voting
As with state and federal elections, voting is compulsory at council elections. Any person on
the electoral roll must vote.
Who can stand for council?
Anyone can stand for election as a Councillor if they:
• are an Australian citizen on the electoral roll
• live in the area and
• are not disqualified for specific reasons such as bankruptcy.
How can I have my say?
Councils represent the interests of everyone in the community. It is important for councils to
work together with their communities to decide what is needed locally.
Councils must consult their communities on local laws, as well as on their corporate plan, the
document which sets the directions for what each local council is planning to do.
Locals can have their say when their council asks for feedback. They can also attend council
meetings, inspect public documents, and meet with their local Councillor.

Councillors.
The administration is headed by the Chief Executive Officer. Logan City Council currently has
more than 1,600 staff and an annual budget of more than $775 million.
The administration of Council is divided into the following four streams:

Committees
To help with the enormous amount of business Council has to consider, there are six standing
committees:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Parks, Sport and Customer Services
Animals and City Standards
Planning and Development
Health, Environment and Sustainability
Roads and Water Infrastructure
Governance, Finance and Economic Development
These committees are made up of all Councillors (one of whom is chair), who meet
with senior staff in the lead up to the full council meetings (held every three weeks). The
committees discuss specific matters placed before them by staff from relevant council
departments, and make recommendations to the full council.
Committee meetings are open to the public. They are attended by the committee members,
the Chief Executive Officer (or representative), the Deputy CEO of the relevant stream, and,
where necessary, other Council officers. The Mayor is a delegate member of all committees.
Matters discussed at Committee level do not become resolutions of Council until the
recommendations of the committee are adopted and carried at a council meeting.

How a Council meeting is conducted
The Mayor acts as the impartial chair of all Council meetings.
During the meeting, Council considers reports from the committees, delivered by the
respective committee chairs.
Items are discussed and debated, with Council deciding whether to adopt the committee’s
recommendations or carry an alternative recommendation. It is usual practice for Councillors
to raise any recommendations from committees that they wish to be discussed. All committee
recommendations that have not otherwise been amended by Council are then carried in a
block resolution.
Some items may be deferred, and others may have recommendations amended. Some
report items are included “for information”. These items do not represent a decision, and do
not require action by Council, they are simply an update on an issue Council is following or
investigating. Once the report has been adopted, all recommendations become resolutions
that will be implemented by staff.
A motion:
All decisions must start as motions. A motion is simply a proposal. Councillors can move a
motion relating to a recommendation, which may involve an amendment or deferment.
Once a motion has been outlined by a Councillor, the Mayor will call for another Councillor
to “second” it. Without a “seconder”, the motion does not proceed. This in an initial test of
support for the proposal. Once it has been seconded, the motion is open to discussion. If
there is no discussion, it is put to the vote.
If there is discussion, Council moves into the rules of debate, during which time speakers for
and against the motion are given time to air their views in order (ie one for, then one against).
Councillors may speak once, for up to five minutes.
The Councillor who moved the motion is given the final say through “right of reply”. The vote
is taken.
Each Councillor, including the Mayor, has one vote.
For a motion to be successful (or “carried”), it must be approved by the majority of
Councillors.
If carried, a motion becomes a resolution. In other words, Council has resolved to carry out
the recommendation.
Point of order:
During a debate, a Councillor may call a point of order. This relates to the behaviour of the
person speaking and is a claim that person has strayed from the rules of debate.
(These agreed rules for the conduct of debate are called “standing orders”.)

PART 3
A brief history of Logan City and its Council
The early years
The Logan region was originally inhabited by Aborigines from two major language groups;
the Yugambeh and the Jaggera. Their first contact with Europeans occurred when the
Commandant of the Moreton Bay Penal Settlement, Captain Patrick Logan, explored the river
in 1826. He described the river as running through the finest track of land he had seen in this
or any other country and he named it the Darling, in honour of the Governor. However, the
Governor returned the compliment by renaming the river the Logan, in recognition of Logan’s
enthusiasm and efficiency.
Once the penal settlement in Brisbane was closed in 1841, land was quickly taken up by
squatters. Cedar-getters were soon extracting the best of the timber from along the Logan
and other rivers in the region. The first leases of land in the Logan area were issued from
1849 and immigration was encouraged following the separation from NSW in 1859. The
declaration of the Logan and Eight Mile Plains Agricultural Reserves in 1862 led to extensive
settlement of the area, particularly by Irish and then German immigrants.
There are still many reminders of early settlers.
Numerous historic cemeteries are located in Logan
including Tygum, Kingston, Carbrook, Logan
Reserve, Slacks Creek, Bethania, Mundoolun,
Tamborine and Woodhill. The oldest remaining
buildings in the district include the slab hut in the
grounds of Mayes Cottage and the Kruger house
at Carbrook.
11
Council in focus
Logan City has come a long way in its short history and today is one of the most dynamic
young cities in Australia.
In 1979, the new local government area was created from a collection of merged fringe
suburbs and farming districts of Beaudesert Shire Council and the then Albert Shire Council,
in the heart of South East Queensland.
While the early years were spent providing basic infrastructure, the past decade has afforded
the opportunity for the city to gain millions of dollars worth of new facilities: aquatic centres,
libraries, an indoor sports centre, regional art gallery and a purpose-built entertainment centre.
The city has also gained a major public hospital, TAFE and a Griffith University campus.
Neighbourhoods and major roads have been revitalised with colourful landscaping,
streetscaping and public art programs. These have been so successful, other Queensland
councils are now following Logan’s lead.
The road, water and sewerage networks have been upgraded, expanded and vastly
improved. New parks have been created, old ones revitalised, and environmentally sensitive
areas protected for future generations.
In 2008, Logan’s boundaries changed again with the inclusion of suburbs from the former
Beaudesert Shire and the northern suburbs of Gold Coast City. It now has more than 290,000
residents and 63 suburbs.
People
Logan has a young, vibrant community, making its people its greatest asset. The city is home
to people from 215 different cultural backgrounds, who live together with a warm spirit of
cooperation and unity.
As a young city, Logan’s residential neighbourhoods are predominantly fresh and
contemporary. New estates continue to flourish, giving locals a wide range of lifestyle options,
from leafy suburbs to bushland acreage. Many older suburbs pre-dating the city’s short
history have been revitalised through urban and community renewal partnership projects
between Logan City Council and the Queensland Government.
12
Economy
Logan City’s economy is largely centred around
the manufacturing, construction, retail and
the property and business services sectors,
as well as boasting a large contingent of
home based business. A number of other key
industries are emerging as economic drivers in
the city as well, such as health and wellbeing,
creative industries, sustainable industries,
education and lifestyle industries. Through
the development of these industries, coupled
with a real sense of entrepreneurialism, Logan
City is developing a culture of innovation and
creativity.
The city also has a diverse range of
established and emerging business
centres providing a variety of services to
the community, including Springwood,
Logan Central, Meadowbrook, Beenleigh,
Park Ridge, Crestmead, SouthWest 1
and Browns Plains. Each of these centres
service the local community and regional
economy in a unique way ranging from major
manufacturing, professional and retail services
to neighbourhood shopping precincts.
Logan City is ideally located between Brisbane,
Ipswich, Redlands and the
Gold Coast, and has easy access to the national
highway and rail networks and the Brisbane Port,
which provides the city
with infrastructure and accessibility competitive advantages as well as tangible regional and
global connections.
In the past 15 years, the city’s business interests have expanded to incorporate trade
agreements and export opportunities to Asia, boosted by sister city relationships with
Hirakata and Shibukawa in Japan, Xuhui and Wenling in China, Taoyuan in Taiwan and a
friendship city agreement with Suzhou in China.
13
Recreation
A young city is an active city, and there is plenty to
do in Logan for lovers of sport and recreation of
all ages.
There are more than 200 sporting and recreation
clubs in Logan, a multi-million dollar indoor sports
centre, aquatic centres as well as a privatelyowned world class cable ski water park and a
privately-owned go-kart raceway.
Logan has 924 environmental and recreational
parks, many featuring dog off-leash areas,
exercise facilities, play equipment and skate
ramps. There are pristine bushland reserves and
wetlands, as well as manicured waterfront parks
along the Logan River. The natural environment is an important facet to life in Logan, and a
popular place to enjoy the bush and its wildlife is the Daisy Hill Conservation Park and Daisy
Hill Koala Centre.
Culture and food
One of Logan’s best kept secrets is the city’s restaurant and café scene. From award-winning
coffee, Mediterranean fare, fresh seafood and contemporary Australian cuisine, to the best
Asian, Indian and European delights, Logan has dining options to suit all tastes.
The city also has a range of attractions that capture the city’s history and cultural diversity.
Visitors can step back in time at Logan’s oldest home, Mayes Cottage, in Kingston, which has
been converted into a house museum circa 1930s, or they can wander through the gardens of
the Chung Tian Buddhist Temple at Priestdale, tucked away in a natural bushland setting.
The Logan Art Gallery showcases the best works by local and visiting artists, and the historic
Kingston Butter Factory and Community Arts Centre also hosts exhibitions and showcases a
range of hand-made crafts. The Kingston Butter Factory is also home to the Butterbox Theatre
(used by local performing groups), the Buttermaid’s Kitchen and the Logan Historical Museum.
The Beenleigh Historical Village is another valuable reminder of our city’s history, with a wealth
of architecture and artefacts on display for visitors. The Beenleigh Visitor Information Centre is
located next to the village and offers information on the many attractions in the area.
The opening of the Logan Entertainment Centre in 2002 ushered in a new era for events and
entertainment in the city. Finally the city had its own venue for conferences, seminars and
major functions. The centre’s arrival also meant locals would have the opportunity to see
major touring acts without having to leave the city.
14
Environmental responsibility
Logan City Council has a range of mechanisms in place to protect environmentally-significant
land, and has a reputation for environmentally responsible waste management practices.
Logan uses world class recycling methods and processes, and Logan Waste operates from
environmentally sustainable headquarters. Council adheres to the waste hierarchy of waste
reduction, reuse, recycle, energy production and residual wastes to landfill. Electricity is
generated from methane gas collected at the Browns Plains landfill, and used to power 2,000
homes as one of the city’s waste-to-energy initiatives.
The concept of a recycling market (“one man’s trash is another man’s treasure”) was
pioneered by Logan and continues to be popular with residents.
Logan is looking to the long term, with effective planning underway find alternate waste
treatment options for the city and meet the waste management requirements when the city’s
current landfill closes in 15 to 20 years time.
Logan: The Illuminated City
One of the toughest challenges for a large urban council on a capital city boundary is to forge
an identity separate from its more recognisable neighbour.
For many years Logan City Council has worked hard to differentiate itself from not only
Brisbane City on its northern boundary, but also Gold Coast City to the south.
In recent years a sense of identity has been created for Logan through effective city image
campaigns, however these have focused on the diversity of the Logan community, rather than
emphasising the city’s physical boundaries.
An innovative project launched in 2003 changed
all that by illuminating a series of landmarks. Three
large water towers and four major overpasses
across the city were lit up in Logan’s corporate
colours of blue and gold, as part of the Logan: The
Illuminated City project.
The project has three key aims: to give Logan
a stronger identity, enhance the city’s profile in
the region, and boost the pride of residents and
businesses in their city.
Community meetings were held to involve and
15
engage local residents. Overwhelmingly the response was positive, with locals quickly gaining
a sense of ownership by becoming involved in the lighting design process.
An ongoing success, the project gives Logan residents their own sense of place. By
strengthening Logan’s identity, Council hopes new business will be attracted to the city, which
will boost the economy and, in turn, create jobs.
Lights on the towers are lit from dusk until 11pm, and on the overpasses from dusk
until dawn.
Logan: The Illuminated City represents a partnership between Logan City Council and private
enterprise, with support from the Queensland Government’s Main Roads Department (the
latter critical for the overpass lighting portion of the project).
Looking ahead
Logan has its sights firmly on the future.
Logan City Council has staked its claim as a regional leader, providing input into the
Queensland Government’s South East Queensland Regional Plan. It is particularly interested
in the plan’s identification of a regionally significant area in the city’s south-west corner
bordering with Scenic Rim Regional Council.
In looking to the future, the focus for Logan City will remain on community lifestyle and
wellbeing, and the provision of quality infrastructure, services and facilities.
Hand in hand with quality lifestyles is a strong economy, and the city’s business sectors
will continue to reap the benefits of convenient location and available workforce. Economic
sectors are expected to continue to grow with the further development of industrial land and
strengthening industry sectors such as food production and manufacturing.
The concept of revitalising old, ‘70s style shopping centres into multi-purpose town centres
will continue, providing central points where people can live, work, shop, dine, use public
transport, and be entertained.
Logan will also continue down the path of city beautification and city image campaigns,
programs that have already changed the face of the city and will continue to do so as it
moves ahead in the 21st century.
