Developing a Community Plan for the Camden Haven
Consultation for this community plan has now closed.
The Camden Haven community have been working together with Council in a Community-Council Action Team to create a Community Plan for your area.
The Plan is a community-led blueprint which reflects the aspirations, strengths and what is special or unique about the area; the character, lifestyle, urban amenity, social image, economy and environment, and the vision that the community has for its future.
Ongoing community planning is a key process in developing a strong partnership between Council and the community and will enable Council to:
- Understand what community's value;
- Understand the issues and priorities for each community;
- Better incorporate these priorities into Council’s planning framework;
- Work together to deliver the identified priorities.
The Camden Haven Community Plan evolved from:
- An online and postcard survey in September 2018;
- Two Community Think Tanks in October 2018 where members of the community came together to draft a vision and identify actions that they would like to see delivered in the next 5-10 years;
- Monthly meetings of the Community-Council Action Team (C-CAT) that was formed by community members and Council to further develop the Community Plan and to prioritise and ensure delivery of the identified actions.
