About Us

Scenic Rim Regional Council is an entity established under the Local Government Act 2009, providing local government services to the Scenic Rim region.

The elected Council comprises a Mayor and one Councillor elected by each of its six divisions. The current Councillors were elected at quadrennial elections held in March 2016.

We operate under an Organisational Structure.

Our public office is located at 82 Brisbane St, Beaudesert, and we have Customer Service Centres at:

  • 70 High St, Boonah
  • Cnr Main St and Yuulong Rd, Tamborine Mountain

Our contact details can be found HERE

Our Finances

Our primary sources of income are Rates and Utility Charges, Fees and Charges, Grants and Contributions and Recoverable Works. We employ about 350 staff and procure significant volumes of goods and services by Contract. Those procurement arrangements are established via Tenders and Expressions of Interest. Details of our Budget for the current financial year can be found at Financial Information.

Our Annual Reports for previous years can be accessed at Corporate Publications. These reports contain the Financial Statements and Community Financial Reports for those periods.

Our Priorities

Council's strategic direction is guided by a long-term Community Plan, five-year Corporate Plan and annual Operational Plans. Those documents establish objectives to be delivered within various timeframes. These can be accessed at Corporate Publications. 

Our Decisions

Council makes decisions at monthly meetings with business items generally presented for preliminary consideration by one of Council's three Standing Committees. Special Meetings are also convened for consideration of urgent business items. Meetings and Agendas provides a record of recent Council decisions and the dates and times of meetings scheduled for the current year. 

Council has delegated various powers to its CEO, enabling routine decisions to be made administratively in an efficient and responsible manner. The Register of Delegations is available for inspection at Council's Public Office.

Our Policies

Local Governments are required to comply with and to implement the provisions of various pieces of State and Commonwealth legislation. Subject to that legislation and general oversight by the State, Council has established the following strategic documents to promote the good rule and governance of the region:
