News Community
1 September 2025
Each year, Council invites the community to share their views on the top priorities that matter most. Your feedback helps shape where funds are allocated in the annual budget, ensuring we can continue to deliver critical services and essential infrastructure while planning for the needs of our rapidly growing population.
The budget is carefully developed to balance current spending with long-term financial sustainability. Alongside this, the Community Action Plan sets out what Council will focus on delivering as part of the second year of the Community Plan.
Your input will directly inform the 2026–2027 Budget, the Community Action Plan 2026–2027, and other key community plans.
As part of this year’s consultation, you also have the chance to win one of five $50 Coles Myer vouchers (total prize pool $250).
