- Understanding Community Priorities
We are seeking your feedback to understand which services you value most. Share your feedback by 22 October, to inform our Budget 2024-25 and service planning.
Our services are wide ranging, and it is important that we continue to meet the evolving needs of our community.
Your feedback will help us to better understand which services and projects we need to focus on, in the next financial year. We will also consider your feedback when we develop the next Council Plan 2025-2029 in 2024.
We have categorised our services 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.
