Invitation to join Council's Economic Task Force

Published on 25 September 2025

Pyrenees Shire Council is seeking Expressions of Interest from business community leaders to form an Economic Task Force (ETF) to develop a plan to promote business growth and investment in Pyrenees Shire.

Pyrenees Shire Council is about to update its Economic Development Strategy and is seeking Expressions of Interest from business community thought leaders to help Council identify priority economic development actions.

The industry representatives will form an Economic Task Force (ETF) to assist in developing an industry focused plan to unlock the potential for business growth and investment in Pyrenees Shire.

The strategy will identify opportunities to grow the Shire’s economy with a focus on, but not exclusively, the key sectors of agriculture, construction, manufacturing (wine), tourism and emerging industries.

The new Economic Development Strategy will include an action plan for priority actions to be delivered by Council. Industry leaders appointed to the ETF will share their knowledge and experience to help identify these priorities.

Expressions of interest close at midday 6 October 2025.
