Constitution for council

GREATER Dandenong will lose federal funding unless residents votes ‘yes’ in the referendum to recognise local government in the Constitution.
That’s the message from the council which has put $10,000 towards the yes vote campaign.
Voters will make their decision on their Federal Election ballot papers in September.
City of Greater Dandenong CEO John Bennie said the move would ensure the Federal Government could keep giving funds directly to councils for roads, services, facilities and more.
“Without it, council is unlikely to continue to access essential federal funding,” he said.
