Make Good Happen (Federal Government Advocacy)

As the peak body for local government in Victoria, the MAV is giving voice to the needs and aspirations of communities across Victoria, and supporting Victorian councils to create cities, regions, towns and growing suburbs that are thriving, resilient and sustainable.

There are five priorities for Victorian councils this federal election.
