Mayor Kevin Mack on Friday said the council was holding daily meetings with government and health authorities.
"Essentially, we don't want to shut down the facilities, but we rely upon the community to look at the social distancing (measures) and understand if they are feeling unwell to self-isolate," he said.
"But ultimately, we need to maintain business as usual to that degree.
"It's not about panicking people it's about saying, you can still access those services."
