Local councils in Australia exist as the third tier of government, created by state laws like Victoria's Local Government Act 2020. They manage local responsibilities such as waste, parks, and pet registration. Councils provide services tailored to community needs, ensuring essential functions like public safety and community well-being. Democratically elected, councils help maintain order and development in municipal areas, playing a vital role alongside federal and state governments in Australia's governance structure. They are essential for localized, efficient service delivery.
