Villages to share feedback on CSP 2050

After strong collaboration with our community, Council has drafted the Community Strategic Plan (CSP) or Wagga Wagga 2050, which is open for public feedback until Wednesday 12 March.

As the next stage of community consultation for the CSP 2050, Council is visiting multiple areas around our city and surrounds to show our community the draft and hear if we are on the right track.

Part of Council’s next lot of engagement with our community focuses on visiting our villages, with multiple pop-up sessions confirmed.

Council’s Executive Manager, Regional Activation – Projects Christine Priest is encouraging residents in the villages and surrounding area to come along to these sessions and share their voice.

“Our villages are a unique and key part of life in our region, and contribute greatly to our community,” Ms Priest said.

“We really want to get feedback from our villages on the draft plan to make sure we have covered the key priorities and goals for their area that were communicated during the original consultation phase last year.

“It's also an opportunity for our villages to see how they have contributed to the draft document, and the broader plan for the future of Wagga Wagga and surrounds.”

Council kicked off the village engagement earlier this week with a visit to Humula and will be heading to Uranquinty on Saturday morning.

“We’ve been communicating with each village to identify which pathways of communication and feedback would work best for each village. While some villages won’t be holding in-person engagement, we still want to hear from residents about whether we are on the right track.”

There are several ways you can give us your input, such as heading online to our Have Your Say Wagga Wagga page, where you can read the draft document and make a submission. You also can drop in on one of our public feedback sessions, or contact council on 1300 292 442 or council@wagga.nsw.gov.au
