Community-led recommendations inform plans for Manningham
In September 2024, we took a crucial step towards building a prosperous future for Manningham, guided by local voices and values.
The Manningham Community Panel was formed and tasked with delving into complex challenges to help determine key priorities for our community.
Following a series of collaborative deliberation sessions, the Panel delivered its recommendations to Council in early February. The final report included 14 recommendations and one minority report. They span several themes including community safety, transport, open spaces and more.
We’ve now carefully considered each recommendation and prepared a detailed response – outlining how we plan to approach and implement them. We’re committed to implementing the Panel’s recommendations to the fullest extent possible.
This process will also play a crucial role in helping guide our strategic planning. This includes our four-year Council Plan, 10-year Asset and Financial Plans and our Community Vision 2040.
Thank you to each of our Panel members for your dedication, time and contributions, and to all community members who contributed to our earlier consultations. We’ll consider your insights in all our decision-making as we plan ahead for Manningham.
