Council is reviewing and updating its strategy on the environment and sustainability.

Council is updating its Environment and Sustainability Strategy to address evolving challenges, including the climate and biodiversity crises. The current strategy, adopted in 2018, no longer fully reflects the district’s growth and emerging environmental and sustainability needs. The updated strategy will:

  • Enable Council to adapt to current and future challenges
  • Integrate strategic outcomes into planning and operations
  • Foster partnerships and collaboration
  • Define roles and responsibilities to improve environmental and sustainability outcomes, ensuring a protected and thriving environment for people and nature.

Stakeholder engagement will be a key part of the strategy development, with opportunities for involvement at various stages. We aim to foster a shared commitment to a healthy environment, and actions that council can implement or partner with others to work together on. Engagement will initially focus on high level strategy and then more detailed action plans as the strategy evolves.
