Welcome to Sutherland Shire Council.

We provide services, infrastructure and public asset management for our community of 235,000 people, spread over an area of 369 square kilometres including many beautiful parks and beaches.

Some of these, such as childcare, footpaths, leisure centres, libraries, sports grounds and public toilets, will be familiar to you. But did you know we help to conserve Aboriginal heritage, provide community support services and manage Hazelhurst Arts Centre?

Our vision for Sutherland Shire is: a connected and safe community that respects people and nature, enjoying active lives in a strong local economy. 

Get involved in our planning now and into the future, by checking out projects or giving feedback at Join the Conversation. We'd love to hear from you.
