What’s Your Vision for Your Town?

THE Upper Hunter Shire Council is formulating a 10 year plan and wants ideas from the community.

Mayor Wayne Bedggood said the community consultation will occur during the next six months.

“The purpose is to identify the community’s main priorities,” said Mayor Bedggood.

“It is a shared vision of what the Upper Hunter Shire community aspires to for the next 10 years,” he said.

“This opens the way for Council and the community to discuss funding priorities, service levels and local identity and to plan in partnership.

“Community engagement is critical to help frame the conversation, set direction and to identify what issues need to be explored,” he said.

“The community will be provided with many ways to get involved, including online and face-to-face options and we want to speak with as many people as possible of all ages, background and interests,” Wayne Bedggood said.

People can register their interest on the Council’s website.
