This week on VLGA Connect, Chris Eddy and Tony Raunic break down the latest from across the local government sector including an arbiter decision at Wyndham, a loss at VCAT for Moorabool Council, and Hume Council’s call for greater enforcement powers in relation to dangerous dogs.

Chris also interviews Ballarat City Council deputy mayor Cr Ben Taylor on council's recent announcement of a 0% rate rise, the implications on the long term fiscal outlook for council with this decision, where savings were found to be able to make this decision considering there is so much pressure on councils to do more, with less, and how other councils might be able to work towards this considering the current cost of living crisis.
