Each year, we ask our community to share their views on their top priorities, to help us understand what you want us to focus on.

Our annual budget allocates funds for the investment and delivery of critical services and essential infrastructure to support our rapidly growing community. We need to balance the delivery of ongoing services and programs while also building infrastructure and facilities to cater to our growing population. The budget is developed to align to our long-term financial plan which balances our current spending on projects and services for the community and strengthens our long-term financial sustainability.

Our Community Action Plan outlines what Council will focus on delivering as part of the second year of the Community Plan.

Your feedback will inform the 2026 - 2027 Budget, Community Action Plan 2026 - 2027 and other important plans for our community.

As part of this year’s Community Priorities community consultation, we are giving away $250 in prizes, made up by five $50 Coles Myer vouchers.
