Locals can have their say on Brimbank council’s We Are Brimbank draft plan, which outlines council’s direction and priorities in the coming years as well as its long-term aspirations for the community.
The We Are Brimbank plan integrates three different plans — the Community Vision 2050, the Council Plan 2025-2029, and the Health and Wellbeing Plan 2025-2029.
Councils are required to adopt a council plan after each general election, and must develop a Health and Wellbeing Plan every four years.
The We Are Brimbank draft plan was created after a year-long community consultation period, with over 490 residents contributing feedback.
Brimbank mayor Thuy Dang said community voices have been key in helping council to develop the draft plan.
“It was good to see that we shared collective hopes for a transformed Brimbank that is united, healthy and full of opportunities,” she said.
“Through ongoing community engagement, innovation, and sustainable growth, we are shaping a city where everyone can thrive, today and for generations to come.”
Input provided during the community feedback period will inform the final We Are Brimbank plan, which will be presented to council for adoption in the October council meeting.
