COVID Information and Support
As the closest level of government to the community, Councils play a vital role in Victoria’s emergency management arrangements, in particular for the greater Sunraysia area.
The health and safety of our staff, customers and the wider community is our number one priority as we face this pandemic together.
After-hours Emergency Services
Emergencies can happen at any time and can present a real challenge for the unprepared.
Storms with heavy rainfall can happen anywhere, at any point during the year.
Keeping your home safe from fire
In Victoria, local governments are responsible for addressing risks associated with heatwave at a community level.
In accordance with the Emergency Management Act 1986, the Mildura Rural City Council has appointed a Municipal Emergency Management Planning Committee (MEMPC).
Neighbourhood Safer Places also known as Places of Last Resort are spaces within the municipal district that may offer some protection from radiant heat, which is the biggest killer during a bushfire.
A pandemic is the outbreak of a disease on a world-wide scale. A pandemic occurs when a new strain of virus emerges from which this is little or no immunity in the population, and it is readily transferred between humans to produce infection in a high proportion of those exposed.
Your animals are your responsibility, and you need to prepare for their safety and welfare during an emergency.
During a storm event, there can be widespread damage across the municipality affecting many people. During these times, when notifying Council of your concerns, it would be appreciated if you could be patient when waiting to talk to an officer, as there is generally a high volume of calls seeking assistance.
