North Sydney Community Precinct System

North Sydney Council is committed to the principles of 'Open Government' through ongoing communication and consultation. In line with this approach, Council established the 'Community Precinct System', back in the late 1970s, encouraging residents, workers, students and property owners to take an active role in providing input into the operations of Council.

Precinct Committees are organised by the residents and are advisory. Precinct meetings are one avenue for informing Council of community opinion and maintaining the flow of two-way communication between community members and Council staff and Councillors. Precincts comments are responded to and considered by Council in its statutory decision making role. Precinct Committees also encourage social interaction within their local community by coordinating events.

North Sydney is divided into twenty four (24) Precinct areas. Precinct Committees are open forums which anyone can attend and consult on a range of community issues.
