“This strategy is our commitment to the community on how we will communicate and engage with them,” General Manager Adrian Panuccio explained.

“It outlines what the community can expect from us, the principles guiding our engagement, our key objectives, how we interact with different stakeholder groups, how we identify engagement opportunities and the tools we use.”

The strategy provides a framework to ensure Council communicates and engages with our community in a consistent way.

This framework is based on the scale and importance of the issue or project, its potential impact on the community and how much influence the community can have on Council decision making.

The strategy also sets out timeframes for public exhibition periods so the community has a clear expectation of how long they have to provide Council with feedback on a wide range of matters.
