Media Release - Have your say on a plan to transform our City - Together We are Brimbank

Residents are encouraged to have their say on the Draft Together We Are Brimbank plan, which integrates the community’s key aspirations and outlines how Council will work to achieve a vision of a transformed Brimbank.

The plan will pave the way to achieving the long term Community Vision 2040 through our four-year Council Vision and Plan and the Municipal Public Health and Wellbeing Plan.

The community has played an important role in shaping the draft plan through feedback provided through the Shaping Brimbank consultation earlier this year, and previous consultations.

The community now has an opportunity to provide feedback on the draft plan.

Over the next four years Council will work to achieve a vision of: ‘A transformed Brimbank that is beautiful, thriving, healthy and connected’.

The plan is to transform Brimbank by focusing on four key strategic directions:

  • People and Community
  • Places and Spaces
  • Opportunity and Prosperity
  • Leadership and Governance

Community members are invited to provide comment by 22 August 2021. 

Feedback can be provided:

  • online at yoursay.brimbank.vic.gov.au/WeareBrimbank
  • by attending drop in sessions in August (registrations required) or
  • by mailing feedback to Communications and Community Engagement, Brimbank City Council, PO Box 70, Sunshine VIC 3020.

Community feedback will inform the final Together We are Brimbank plan, which will come back to Council for review in October 2021.
