Thank you to everyone who came along to one of our 'Discovery and Dreaming' community workshops and/or took the time to make a submission on the Rural Villages Strategy discussion paper.Although formal submissions have now closed, your feedback is always welcome.
You can review recorded feedback from each of the 'Discovery and Dreaming' workshops under the 'Community Feedback' tab.
We are now moving into the 'Design' phase, where we create what will be in the future of our rural villages.
During the 'Design' phase, Council officers will use your ideas, suggestions and feedback collected throughout the 'Discovery and Dreaming' phase to prepare a draft Rural Villages Strategy. This process is expected to take a few months, but once the draft is complete, we'll make it available for you to review and will again invite your feedback.
In the meantime, if you have any questions or comments regarding the Rural Villages Strategy, please contact Council's Planning Reforms unit on (02) 6670 2503.
