Livingstone Shire Council is a government administration serving the Capricorn Coast in Queensland, based in Yeppoon. It is identified as one of the region's largest and most diverse employers, with a workforce in the hundreds dedicated to delivering services to the community. The shire stretches from Keppel Sands in the south to Stanage in the north, with Yeppoon and Emu Park as its main towns and several smaller communities—Byfield, Farnborough, Cawarral, The Caves, Marlborough and Ogmore—in its area of responsibility. The council approaches planning and financial stewardship with a long-term view, aiming to promote economic growth, attract investment, and foster sustainable industries for residents across the shire. A notable 2025 development involved collaboration with Advance Rockhampton and CQUniversity to advocate for a small-scale multi-species abattoir to broaden local supply chains and strengthen the regional food manufacturing workforce.
