In the Event of a Storm

 The State Emergency Service (SES) assist residents with private damage during storm events. The SES can be contacted on 132 500. Please refer to their site for more information: www.ses.vic.gov.au

 Alternatively, for storm damage to roads, footpaths and nature strips, contact Council's Engineering department on 9518 3409 or after hours emergencies on 9909 0621.

During a storm event there can be many locations of damage across the municipality and there could be many people affected who will be advising Council of their concerns. During these times, it would be appreciated if residents could be patient while waiting on-hold to contact Council and for us to attend the site.

Council will be clearing roads and paths to make them safe which could take some time depending on the vastness of the storm. We will then return to clear the nature strips as soon as practicable during the following weeks. It would be appreciated if the Community could assist Council to keep any debris clear of the roads and paths until it is able to be removed.
