Strategic Plan and Development Plan Review 2011
Help Shape Our City!
Council is well on its way in its review of two very important documents for Holdfast Bay: the Community Plan (aka Strategic Plan) and the Development Plan. Consultation has closed for the review of the Community Plan and consultation for the Development Plan Review is due to finish with a Public Hearing on 31 January 2012 at 7pm at the Brighton Civic Centre. The hearing provides an opportunity for Council to hear submissions from those who have indicated their wish to be heard, and submissions from any other people.
Update regarding the consultation process
Following our Community Forum in August (which was supported by the distribution of the ‘Our Place’ discussion paper), Council presented two documents for the community’s consideration in the second phase of consultation:
|
|
- The Our Place Draft Community Plan
(5632 kb) paper outlines the draft community directions for Council over the next 4 years. - The Developing Our Place 2011(933 kb) paper explains the Development Plan, discusses the various influences on its review (including the 30-Year Plan) and proposes some key projects for community comment
Consultation has now closed and an amended Community Plan will be presented to Council in February 2012. Comments received regarding the review of the Development Plan will be collated and Council will hold a Public Hearing on 31 January 2012 at 7pm at the Brighton Civic Centre to hear submissions from those who have indicated their wish to be heard, and submissions from any other people. Council will then draft its Strategic Directions Report for submission to the Minister for Planning.

| Strategic Plan / Community Plan |
The Strategic Plan (now known as Our Place Community Plan) is Council's primary forward planning document. It sets a long-term vision and outlines our future directions and levels of services provided to the community. It leads Council's Business Plan, which sets out future actions and financial priorities for the next 4 to 5 years. The Our Place Community Plan represents the aspirations of the Holdfast Bay community and responds to global and national forces that will shape our community and city.
