About the Huon Valley Council

The Huon Valley Council covers 5497km² and is the southernmost local government area in Australia. While Hobart is just a 30-minute drive away, the area retains the beauty, charm and heritage of a bygone era. The population of the Huon Valley is spread across the five main townships of Huonville, Franklin, Cygnet, Geeveston and Dover.

Community Engagement

Community engagement is about us working together to understand and resolve an issue or project. It is a process that involves the public in decision making and the use of community input to make better, more informed decisions.
