Maroondah notes second-quarter capital works update for 2025-26
A quarterly report on the status of Maroondah City Council’s capital works program was received and noted at the February council meeting, alongside updates on council plan actions and service performance.
Maroondah City Council has received its second-quarter capital works update for 2025-26, giving a formal progress check on infrastructure and project delivery across the municipality.
At its 16 February meeting in the Council Chamber, councillors carried a motion to receive and note the report on the status of the capital works program for the second quarter of the 2025-26 financial year. The minutes record Cr Nathaniel Henderson moved the item, seconded by Cr Chris Jones, and that it was carried.
The minutes do not set out project-by-project details in the extracted text, but the report is part of the council's regular monitoring of works delivery during the financial year. For residents and ratepayers, the update is one of the main public checkpoints on how planned infrastructure spending and project timing are tracking across Maroondah.
The capital works item was considered alongside other quarter-two reporting for the period to 31 December 2025. Councillors also noted progress toward the 2025-26 priority actions in the Council Plan 2025-2029, and noted service performance results under the Local Government Performance Reporting Framework.
Council also noted completion of the Councillor Professional Development Program 2025, including mandatory training for the mayor and deputy mayor under the Local Government Act 2020 and related regulations.
The February meeting minutes indicate quarterly reporting will continue through 2025-26. That means further updates are expected on council plan actions, service performance and the capital works program as the year progresses.
