Welcome to Mitchell Shire Council

We currently provide public access to 13 water bores across the municipality. They need upgrading with an anticipated cost of $390,000. Before we make a decision about investing in upgrades, we're doing some research to find out who is using them, what for and what impact any changes would have. Survey is open until 28 February 2019.

The Fire Danger Period is now in place. This means you can no longer burn off and permits to burn will not be issued. To check what else you can and can't do during the Fire Danger Period or on Total Fire Ban days, please visit the CFA website.

Mitchell Shire Council is calling on election candidates to urgently commit funding towards the $80 million Wallan freeway interchange and Watson Street upgrade. The call comes as a result of VCAT’s decision to approve a major clay quarry at 2330 Epping-Kilmore Road in Wallan earlier this month.

Residents of Wallan will be more connected and active with a new play space at Coffey Drive underway as well as upgrades to play spaces in Roulston Way and Lisa Place planned for early next year.
