Penrith City Council invites residents to have their say on the revised Community Engagement Policy and the Community Engagement Strategy and Community Participation Plan 2022-26 before Monday 12 December 2022.
The documents formalise Council’s commitment to better decision-making through meaningful engagement. They outline Council’s guiding principles and methodology to understand what engagement looks like and how residents can be involved in shaping the future of our City.
Penrith Mayor Tricia Hitchen said community engagement is at the heart of local government and helps communities to be active participants in decision-making.
“Council has a vital role to play in providing opportunities for people to be involved in creating good public policy and ensuring relevant, quality services for our current and future residents,” Cr Hitchen said.
“We want everyone to be part of this important conversation that will ultimately make our City a better place to live, work and visit.”
Council’s Community Engagement Policy and Community Engagement Strategy and Community Participation Plan 2022-26 are on exhibition until Monday 12 December at Your Say Penrith.
Hard copies are available to view at the Penrith Civic Centre, St Marys Business Office and Library, Penrith City Library and St Clair Library.
