Have your say on the draft strategic plans

Thank you to everyone who’s shared their ideas and insights so far. With your help, Council has drafted new strategic plans for the Peninsula’s future - now we're inviting you to take one more look before they’re finalised.

These plans outline the broad community outcomes and strategic priorities that will guide Council’s work over the coming years, helping us deliver on our shared Community Vision. They set the foundation for the more detailed actions Council makes each year, shaped by what our community has told us matters most.

Like all Victorian councils, we’re balancing rising costs, ageing infrastructure, and increasing responsibilities from other levels of government. At the same time, we know many in our community are feeling the impact of cost-of-living pressures. That’s why we’re focused on delivering the services that matter most while remaining financially sustainable. These plans were developed with these challenges in mind and a clear focus on achieving tangible outcomes for our community.

Our draft Council Plan and draft Public Health and Wellbeing Plan are now available for your review, with the Financial Plan and Asset Plan to follow soon. We’d love your feedback before they’re adopted.

  • Review periods

    Please note, the draft plans will be open for feedback in two phases:

    • Phase 1: Council Plan and Public Health and Wellbeing Plan
      Open for review from 21 May – 2 July 2025.

    • Phase 2: Asset Plan and Financial Plan
      Open for review at a later date – to be advised.


    We encourage you to review and provide feedback on the plans during their respective exhibition periods.
