The City of Mount Gambier 2024-2028 Strategic Plan was endorsed by Elected Members at this week’s Council meeting. Reflecting the aspirations, priorities and values articulated in the Community Vision – Mount Gambier 2035, the plan will guide Council’s work to deliver on its vision and purpose throughout the next four years.
Council’s vision:
Erupting with Potential: Embracing Our Past, Enhancing our Strengths and Shaping an Exciting Future.
Embracing our volcanic past, the City of Mount Gambier partners with our communities to build on the strength of our landscape and our connections to shape a sustainable future. Together, we elevate the city’s prominence, ignite new opportunities and ensure a thriving, liveable environment for everyone.
Following the adoption of the draft plan at the October Council meeting, a community consultation process was undertaken between 16 October 2024 and 7 November 2024, concluding an extensive engagement program that commenced with the Mount Gambier 2035 initiative in November 2023.
“The Mount Gambier 2035 project team sought feedback from the community about what we want our future to look like. Resulting in a bold and impressive vision, we have worked hard to ensure the aspirations and values expressed are reflected in what Council is committing to achieve over the next four years,” Mayor Lynette Martin said.

- Environment and Liveability,
- Learning and Innovation,
