Byron Shire Council has a new Draft Community Engagement Strategy and the community is invited to provide feedback on the document until 1 December.
“This Community Engagement Strategy is a new and important document for Council,” Media and Communications Coordinator, Annie Lewis, said.
“It highlights the importance and value of community and stakeholder input and its role in guiding and shaping the work and projects undertaken by Council, outlining how and when we communicate and engage.
“We are fortunate that our community actively participates in opportunities to provide feedback to Council on a wide range of issues and our engagement rates are generally very high which is terrific.
“This draft Strategy takes a close look at who our stakeholders are, and outlines to people the ways that we will engage with them for different projects,” Ms Lewis said.
The Community Engagement Strategy, after being endorsed by Council, will be part of the suite of Integrated Planning and Report documents which set out how Council is planning and preparing to meet the present and future needs of the community.
Information on the and how to provide feedback is on Council’s website.
