Bass Coast platform performs

Bass Coast Shire Council’s innovative online platform has celebrated its first year of informing and engaging the community.

Mayor, Michael Whelan says Engage Bass Coast, the Council’s one-stop-shop for planning information and to post feedback, has posted strong growth and grown to host all information on advocacy and infrastructure projects.

“The platform has enabled the Council to inform our community on these projects in a more visual form,’’ Mayor Whelan said.

“You can follow individual projects, to stay informed about any changes or updates or you can elect to be notified about projects that are in a particular area or field of interest. A fantastic feature of the platform is the timeline, which provides a clear indication of a project’s milestones,’’ he said.

So far, 27 engagements have opened for community feedback, with 111 project pages created and 4,955 survey forms completed via the platform.

There have also been close to 30,000 unique visitors to the site, with 26,157 documents uploaded for viewing; while around 750 people have signed up to receive updates on specific projects.

The platform can be found at www.engage.basscoast.vic.gov.au.
