Bayside is a culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) community with a rich history of diverse traditions, almost half of our residents were born overseas and 53% of people speak a language other than English at home.
Welcome to Bayside Guide
Bayside Council published the Welcome to Bayside Council Guide (The Guide) to outline the role of local government, and what we deliver for the community.
The Guide is for all Bayside residents including new citizens who want to learn more about Council and the community, like:
- Detailing the different levels of Australian government
- Bayside’s demographics
- Our community services and programs
- Public places and facilities managed by Bayside Council
- Community supports available to residents of all abilities, backgrounds, and ages.
- How to engage with us and participate in community life.
Call Customer Service on 1300 581 299 to request The Guide in another format or language.
