Why do I need to register?

    Before you can take part, we ask that you create an account.

    We respect that your privacy is important to you. We have made the account creation process simple and straightforward. The only personal information we collect from you at registration is your email and your suburb, unless you choose to answer some of our optional questions.

    We want to create a dynamic community of regular users and we are continually developing new ways of engaging with our members.

    What information is collected?

    To register, the only compulsory fields you need to answer are:

    • Your email
    • A username that you will use on Comment on Cockburn
    • A password to ensure your account is secure.
    • Your suburb

    By registering, you will join a growing number of residents who will occasionally be emailed by us about new projects in your local area. 

    What happens to my feedback?

    All comments, ideas and suggestions are collated for feedback in reports. These reports assist in Council in the decision making process. This may include decisions on the development of strategies, programs and activities.
