For the last six weeks, council has held drop-in sessions in Nerriga, Reidsdale, and Araluen, and community meetings in Braidwood and Bungendore.
"We've found the most effective way to work with our bushfire-affected communities is by outreach," Cr Overall said. "We're going to continue that approach, rather than have those people affected come to a central point."
BlazeAid will continue its clean-up operations, based in Braidwood and Nerriga.
The mayor is in discussions with Blaze-Aid co-ordinators to ensure volunteers can work safely.
The Braidwood BlazeAid used the showground hall as a meeting point and co-ordination centre; that will now close. Instead, BlazeAid will operate through their campgrounds, caravans, and distance set-ups, and get take-away meals from the hall canteen.
