Share your ideas!


This is a space for sharing community ideas and suggestions outside of regular project engagement activities.

  • Do you have an idea for a new approach or way of doing things?
  • Do you have a vision for a new space or service for our shire?
  • Do you have a great new plan for the community that we can help deliver?
  • Do you have an example of another place that is doing something that you wish we could do?

Your ideas will be shared with Council staff in our internal engagement updates.
You can submit ideas as often as you like, so please drop by anytime!

Suggestions, ideas and examples of who does it well!

All ideas shared here will be publicly visible. (max 140 characters).
