Through the Help Shape Wyndham’s Future survey undertaken earlier in the year, the Wyndham community identified a huge range of actions for Council to focus its work and resources on.
We have undertaken some work to analyse and categorise these actions and we now invite you to further shape the feedback so far received by telling us what you would like Council to prioritise in its Council Plan.
These priorities include:
- Natural Environment & Open Space
- Safety
- Amenity
- Schools & Education
- Economy
- Health Services and Community Supports and Programs
- Arts & Culture
- Community Engagement
- Council
- Infrastructure
- Growth & Development
- Local Jobs
- Transport
- Environment & Climate Change
Read about what the community has already told us below. Leave your comments against the issue you feel is the most important to you and that Council should therefore prioritise when considering its work and resource allocation over the next four years.
