Our Budget 2025–2026, Revenue and Rating Plan 2025–2029, Strategic Property Plan 2025–2030 and Biodiversity Plan 2025–2029 were endorsed at the Council meeting on 30 June.
Thank you to the community members who helped inform these plans over the past few months by providing feedback through the Our Place, Our Plan community engagement program.
In May, we shared these draft plans. We received 75 submissions in total — including 62 survey and 13 email submissions. Community members could provide feedback on one or more of the draft plans — to help us understand if we got them right.
The top insights on the draft Budget 2025–2026 focused on the need for increased investment in safety, infrastructure, and amenity upgrades in activity centres and in open space projects for new parks and gardens.
A request for the rating system to be reformed was the most consistent comment on the draft Rating and Revenue Plan 2025–2029 that received eight submissions.
Our draft Strategic Property Plan 2025–2030 received 19 submissions — and the feedback highlighted concerns about selling Council land, and a preference for our buildings to be multipurpose and provide greater shared community spaces.
Our draft Biodiversity Plan 2025–2029 received 45 submissions — the most submissions overall. We heard positive feedback about the plan and its focus on education and greening initiatives. There was strong support for increased planting of indigenous trees and plants and calls for greater protection of our waterways.
Keep an eye out for our next round of draft plans that will be exhibited in the coming months.
