Draft Community Engagement Policy
Council has adopted its Draft Community Engagement Policy for further consultation.
Community
engagement and participation is an important element of the democratic process.
An empowered community is one that actively participates to influence decisions
that affect their lives.
We understand
our community is diverse and facing many geographical and demographical
challenges.
By
strengthening relationships and listening to our community, we ensure that we
can make better, more informed decisions and therefore deliver value to the
public in all aspects of our work.
This policy
document provides the community engagement and public participation framework
for engagement activities undertaken by Council.
Have your say on the policy. Email submissions to Travis Fitzgibbon, Manager Community Engagement at buloke@buloke.vic.gov.au
Or you can get involved in Council's Our Say forum.
Submissions on the Draft Community Engagement Policy close Friday 22 January 2021.
