Wyndham City has engaged Metropolis Research to conduct its Annual Community Satisfaction Survey beginning 1 November 2025 through to 8 December 2025 and recommencing 10 January 2026 to 8 February 2026. This will be a door-to-door survey conducted in person.

All local governments in Victoria are required to conduct an Annual Community Satisfaction Survey to help understand community needs and to measure satisfaction with a range of Council services. This information informs Council’s planning, service delivery and policy development.

Metropolis Research staff will conduct the in-person surveys in an interviews style with randomly selected households across Wyndham. The survey methodology ensures respondents reflect the diverse Wyndham community.

Surveys will take place during daylight hours and are expected to take approximately 15 minutes. Metropolis Research staff will first provide residents identification authorising them to undertake the survey on behalf of Council and a letter of authorisation from Council.

The information residents provide will be kept confidential and will not be used for any other purpose. Thank you for your participation in the survey.

For further information, contact mail@wyndham.vic.gov.au or 1300 023 411.

Wyndham City Council will be implementing its Seasonal Prescribed Burn Program for Spring 2025 in Open Space/Conservation Reserves and Rural Roadside Reserves.

Specific locations include:

The reserves earmarked for prescribed burns consist of nationally threatened Victorian Volcanic Plains vegetation and the use of burning is a necessary component in the management of these native grasslands. 

The benefits include:

• Promoting healthy, fresh growth that many grassland species are accustomed too.

• Creating temporary spaces of bare ground, allowing new plants to germinate.

• Removing the build-up of dry/cured biomass that restricts healthy plant growth.

These burns will be conducted by Wyndham City Council’s Conservation Team.

It is anticipated that these burns will take place during the Spring 2025 period (suitable weather and on-ground conditions permitting).  In addition, these Prescribed Burns may be prevented from proceeding due to several other factors resulting in the postponement of the burn until the following spring or autumn.

If residents experience smoke in or around their home, they should shut their windows and turn off their air conditioners. Council apologises for any inconvenience experienced during the burns. 

Prior to the burn residents in nearby properties will be notified of the burn commencing.

For further information, please do not hesitate to contact Craig Dodson (Area Leader Conservation) on 9742 0777.
