Developing a Community Plan for Telegraph Point and surrounds

The Telegraph Point 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 Telegraph Point Community Plan evolved from:

• An online and postcard survey in May 2019;
• Two Community Think Tanks in May 2019 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.
