Join a Community Conversation near you to meet the councillors you elected last year and senior council staff. Hear about the new councillors' plans for the next four years and how they’re investing your rate money.

These sessions are also an important opportunity for us to better understand what matters most to you and your community.

Come along to learn about:

  • Allocation of additional funding to roads
  • The budget and how we are planning to allocate our funds over the next 12 months
  • Our focus areas for the Delivery Program and Operational Plan of Roads, Financial Sustainability and Customer Experience
