Pyrenees Shire Council’s 2026 Community Satisfaction Survey results highlight opportunities for continued improvement, according to Mayor Cr Damian Ferrari.
“The 2026 results show Council is maintaining the status quo when it comes to delivering community services, but there is always room to improve,” Cr Ferrari said.
“We will carefully review these results to identify where we can further develop and refine the services we provide to our community. I would also like to thank the community for taking part in the survey and providing constructive feedback.”
Council’s overall performance rating remains steady at 58 per cent—unchanged from 2025. This result aligns with the State average and is higher than the small shire average of 53 per cent.
Waste management and library services were among Council’s highest-rated areas, reflecting strong community satisfaction. However, the survey identified unsealed roads and sealed local streets as the lowest-rated services, though they had risen on the previous year’s figures.
“It’s clear our community places a high priority on roads, and this is an area where increased investment is needed,” Cr Ferrari said.
The survey is conducted annually by Local Government Victoria as part of a statewide assessment of community satisfaction across councils. In 2026, 413 residents from Pyrenees Shire participated in the survey.
