COMMUNITY AND RECREATION PANEL MEMBERS
Every two years, Council appoints eight people living in the Liverpool Local Government Area as representatives on the Community and Recreation Panel.
The role of these eight selected representatives is to bring their knowledge of needs or issues in relation to community and recreation services and facilities in the Liverpool community to the panel. This knowledge enables the Community and Recreation Panel to give informed advice to Council on a wide range of community and recreation issues.
Council nominates two Councillors and several Council staff to the Panel. Panel representatives attend six bi-monthly evening meetings each year over the two-year term.
