Welcome to Mitchell Shire Council

Mitchell Shire Council’s first Social Justice Framework aims to promote equal rights and opportunities for all people within Mitchell Shire and to redress the impact that social and economic inequalities have on both the people experiencing it and the wider community. Have your say now.

The Victorian Government has recently reviewed the mapping for the Bushfire Management Overlay (BMO). The overlay now applies to more properties in Mitchell Shire and means planning permits may be required for new uses and developments and for some extensions. The Victorian Government has written to affected property owners. Please visit our Bushfire Management Overlay page for more information.

Mitchell Shire is home to some wonderful native bird species and Council is calling on residents to become citizen scientists for a week by recording and sharing what birds they see.

Construction of a vibrant community hub in Melbourne’s booming northern growth corridor has begun, with works starting on the $6.74 million Greater Beveridge Community Centre.
