Gungahlin Community Council
- Gungahlin Community Council
The Gungahlin Community Council (GCC) is a voluntary, not for profit, community-based association operating in the Gungahlin District of Canberra in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). This area covers the north-northwest of the ACT between the ACT/New South Wales border, the Barton Highway to the south, and the Federal Highway/Northbourne Avenue to the east, including the village of Hall. GCC’s stated objective is “To preserve and improve the social, cultural, economic and environmental well-being of Gungahlin and the Gungahlin community.”
The GCC operates an active community news [http://www.gcc.asn.au website] and distributes a bimonthly newsletter called Gungahlin Smokesignals – GunSmoke – which is delivered to all residents and businesses in the Gungahlin district, in excess of 15,000 copies.
Although the GCC is called a council, it is not a local government body, unlike councils in other parts of Australia. (The ACT only has two levels of government, whereas other parts of Australia have three – Federal, State and Local.)
