Villages Strategy

Our villages are an important part of our history, and they support thriving communities.

Many of our villages exist in rural or environmental settings. This important quality reflects their history and provides ‘breaks’ between one village and the next.

The purpose of the Villages Strategy is to reflect on the villages within the Local Government Area (LGA) and seek to understand the important features and characteristics that make them unique. By doing so, we gain a better understanding of their existing local character and how they may look and feel into the future.

This strategy seeks to define the existing and desired future character of our villages and establishes a range of actions to help support these important areas.
