Have Your Say: Draft Council Plan 2025-2029
Council welcomes feedback on the Draft Council Plan 2025-2029 (the Draft Plan) which has been developed in consultation with our community and details the vision, goals and strategies to guide Council’s priority activities, decision making and service delivery over the next four-year period.
During 2024, community members and stakeholders were invited to contribute to the
development of the Draft Plan through a range of engagement activities including: surveys, community Thinktank Sessions and community engagement activities at locations across the Shire.
Council endorsed the Draft Plan at its April Council Meeting, and the document is now on public exhibition from Thursday 1 May until 5pm, Wednesday 28 May 2025. The Draft Plan also incorporates the Municipal Public Health and Wellbeing Plan which focuses on improving the health and wellbeing of our community.
