Draft Economic Development Strategy

Frequently asked questions

To realise the aspirations outlined in the draft Strategy, we must actively realise our City’s economic potential and build upon the capacity of our industry sectors and businesses. This will allow us to not only achieve our goals but respond quickly to opportunities as they emerge. The action plan (which you can read in the draft Strategy) outlines detailed actions that Council will undertake over the span of this Strategy to help us reach the objectives within our priorities and position our City for continued success. It will be updated every four years and monitored annually.

The community and stakeholders were consulted with in late 2022. The feedback received, along with desktop research and global best practice, informed the development of the draft Strategy. 

After reviewing feedback on the draft Strategy, the draft will be finalised and be brought to Council for adoption.
