Your City 2034 - Be part of the vision

November 2024

Thank you to all community members who completed a community scorecard survey or attended a workshop, your input into the development of the Council Plan 2024-34 is invaluable. The City's new Plan for the Future can be found here.

The City of Busselton has partnered with Catalyse to develop a new Council Plan 2024-2034.

Overview:

As a direct result of reforms to the Local Government Act 1996 and the Integrated Planning and Reporting framework, the City’s draft Council Plan 2024 - 2034 will be produced as the outcome of community engagement and involvement in the strategic planning process. This document will combine the Strategic Community Plan and Corporate Business Plan together into one document.

As part of our commitment to review our strategic direction every 4 years, we'd like to hear how the community perceives services, programs and facilities in the City of Busselton and what the Councils priorities should be as we look to 2034 and beyond. The results of this exercise will build on the great input we already have through the development of plans and strategies such as our Economic Development Strategy 2016-2026, Cultural Interpretation Strategy, Sport and Recreation Facilities Strategy 2020-2030, and Youth Plan 2023-2027 and will help to consolidate our future planning.

Process:

The development of the Council Plan will occur in a variety of stages over the next 9 months. These stages include:

• Internal review of existing documents and strategies
• Catalyse MARKYT Community Scorecard
• Internal Council workshop
• Community workshops
• Council adoption- Upcoming
• Launch of Council Plan 2024 -2034

Community workshops have now concluded and the City thanks everyone who participated or sent a submission in. All feedback will now be considered and the draft Council Plan 2024 - 2034 will be developed. Follow this page to remain updated.
