Ipswich City Council

At the Greater Springfield Chamber of Commerce we pride ourselves on being a market leader on delivering innovative initiatives to its members that has seen its membership grow over at a staggering rate over the last two years.

As Greater Springfield continues to grow, the chamber is here to support and facilitate the continued growth of our business community while advocating a spirit of collaboration amongst all members and the community at large, we will continue to strive to create and improve our events with the sole purpose of delivering better value to our members.

The Council sets the vision and strategic direction for the City and is also responsible for setting the Council’s organisational structure.

The Mayor and Councillors formulate the City’s goals and the policies of the Council and ensure these are successfully implemented. They form the connection between the individual members of the Ipswich community and the Council and represent the Ipswich community in deciding suitable facilities, services and activities for the City.
