Overview

Our Community Plan is a community owned plan for the future of the Tamworth region. Community input is crucial to helping achieve our goal of creating a world-class regional centre, a great place to live, to work, to study and to visit. The Local Government Act (1993) and Integrated Planning and Reporting Framework requires that each Council prepare a Community Strategic Plan covering a minimum ten-year period, reviewed every four years.

Our Community Plan 2023-2033 is aligned with Blueprint 100 and its current themes;

• Deliver durable infrastructure including raw water
• Facilitate smart growth and housing choices
• Create a prosperous region
• Build resilient communities
• Connect our region and its citizens
• Design with nature
• Celebrate our culture and heritage
• Strengthen our proud identity

Prior to the draft Community Strategic Plan being created there was a community survey conducted by Informed Decisions to determine what is important to the community and business workshops. Thank you to everyone who took the time to complete the survey or attend a workshop.
