- Our Services and Budget Priorities
We are planning the Budget 2024-25, and prioritising services for our community. Share your feedback to inform our Budget and priorities by 22 October.
Understanding which services you value most, will help us to better meet evolving needs of our community.
This is your chance to tell us which services and projects we need to focus on. We will also consider your feedback when we develop the next Council Plan 2025-2029 in 2024.
Our services are wide ranging, and we have categorised them into 24 key areas:
- Emergency Management
- Community Safety
- Community Laws
- Food safety
- Statutory Building
- Arts and Culture
- Sports and Leisure
- Libraries
- Economic Development
- Festivals and Events
- Early Years
- Youth
- Seniors
- Social Research, Policy and Planning
- Cemetery
- Health
- Roads and Transport
- Water and Drainage
- Open Space and Biodiversity
- Property and Facilities
- Waste
- Statutory Planning
- Strategic Land Use Planning
- Sustainability and Climate Response
A description for each service area is available on our Have your say webpage.
We strongly understand community priorities from the deliberative engagement we did to develop the Council Plan 2021-2025, back in 2020.
Before we develop the draft Budget 2024-25 early next year, we want to know if community priorities have shifted.
Feedback for community consultation closes on 22 October.
