We have created a draft Community Development Strategy to guide how we partner with our community to achieve the goal.

Have we got it right? Let us know what you think of the strategy that will meet the goal to:

• be a cohesive, single community as well as a collection of smaller communities based on our geographical location or on areas of special interest or identity.

• celebrate our diversity

• welcome newcomers

• learn and share our knowledge with others

• ensure the environment in which we live is safe, strong and healthy both now and in the future

• build stronger, resilient, sustainable local communities

• strengthen the interests and values of our District’s residents by encouraging active participation

• generate community led opportunities and outcomes
