The Southern Sydney Regional Organisation of Councils (SSROC) is
an association of fifteen municipal and city councils:
Together these councils represent more than 1.2 million
residents.
SSROC provides a forum for the exchange of ideas between our
member councils, and an interface between governments, other
councils and key bodies on issues of common interest.
The organisation acts as a facilitator of joint activities
between councils which provide benefits through economies of scale.
Member councils can reduce the costs of procurement, share the
costs of engaging external assistance if needed, and can expose
their staff and councillors to a wide network of expertise and
views.
SSROC is also a means of resolving issues and challenges that
cross our municipal boundaries, such as the environment and
transport.
SSROC's work is structured to respond to the priorities
identified and agreed by the members in the annual workplan, and
ultimately to contribute to the social, environmental
and economic improvement of the southern Sydney region.
