Brimbank Council is seeking feedback on the Draft Community Engagement Policy as part of its commitment to improving the way we engage with the community.
The draft policy will guide Brimbank’s approach to genuine and effective community engagement with residents and other stakeholders.
Community engagement is a key priority for Council, and an important process to making sure the voices of our community are heard, and considered when making decisions in the delivery of Council services.
The draft policy highlights Council’s commitment to transparent and accessible engagement with the community, ensuring diverse communities are engaged and working together to build community trust in decision-making.
The draft policy has been informed by State Government legislation, benchmarking with other Councils, and consultation workshops with internal and external stakeholders.
The consultation will open in early 2024. For more information and to have your say visit www.yoursay.brimbank.vic.gov.au.
