COMMUNITY INPUT WILL SHAPE THE NEXT DECADE

Weddin Shire Council is inviting residents to participate in a series of interactive workshops aimed at shaping the Community Strategic Plan. This plan will guide the future direction of the Weddin Shire for the next ten years.

The workshops will focus on exploring the community's vision and key priorities including growth for the future, helping to identify the needs and aspirations of Weddin’s diverse communities. Public input is crucial in creating a plan that truly reflects the community's interests. As part of this process, Council aims to engage at least 10% of the Weddin community, underscoring the importance of community participation.

Mayor Paul Best said: "We want to hear from you! Your ideas and aspirations are critical in building a future that benefits everyone in Weddin Shire. We know our community is engaged with Council, and this is your opportunity to help shape the priorities and identify areas of growth for our Shire over the next decade."

Council is proud to partner with Steph Colman, who will facilitate the workshops and help gather valuable community input on behalf of Council.

Workshop Locations & Dates:

Residents are welcome to attend any session, regardless of their location within the Shire. The workshops will serve as open forums where participants can share their ideas and vision for Weddin in 2035, and discuss the steps needed to get there.

To assist with planning and catering, RSVPs are encouraged but not essential. Please contact Council’s Economic Development Office, Auburn Carr, at 02 6343 1864 or auburn@weddin.nsw.gov.au
