The City of Greater Geelong Council is developing 'Our Community Plan' for the next four years. Aligning with the community's 30-year vision, Greater Geelong: A Clever and Creative Future, it will assist your Council in having maximum impact in addressing community need, while remaining financially sustainable and continuing to deliver critical services.
Engagement with the community is an essential part of creating the plan for the community.
Thank you for your input. The information you shared helps us understand what is most important to the community and will shape Our Community Plan 2021-25.
By 2047, Greater Geelong will be internationally recognised as a clever and creative city-region that is forward looking, enterprising and adaptive, and cares for its people and environment.
As a community, good health and wellbeing are our most valuable asset. They are also at the heart of the City’s work.
This year, the impacts of COVID-19 highlighted the importance of our local neighbourhoods, both for connecting with others and accessing the services and facilities we need in our daily lives.
So, as we look towards a COVID normal, how can we create a healthier and more sustainable future?
How can we make sure we build on what we’ve learned?
Financial sustainability over the long term is a key consideration for Council.
Council has a responsibility to guarantee that it has enough resources now and into the future to deliver the services and programs expected by the community.
There is also a need to maintain community assets to a certain level so that the cost does not become a burden for future ratepayers and for council to remain financially viable.
