An ambitious 10-year draft Community Strategic Plan for Hornsby Shire has gone on public exhibition after being adopted at last night’s Council Meeting.
Titled Your Vision | Your Future 2035, the Community Strategic Plan is the highest-level plan that Hornsby Shire Council prepares and is developed collaboratively with the community, the Council said in a statement.
“Your Vision | Your Future 2032 is the community’s plan envisaging what our citizens want Hornsby Shire to be like in 2035 and covers the period from 2025 until 2035. It identifies your main priorities and aspirations for the next 10 years and outlines the various strategies to achieve them. Every project led by Council is guided by this plan,” the Council said.
The major challenges identified for the next 10 years include population growth, housing affordability, traffic and transport, economic and technological change, preserving our natural environment, climate change, social diversity and resilience.
“As a Council, it’s important that we remain community-led in all our projects, decisions and plans. That’s why we’re excited to seek your feedback on Your Vision | Your Future 2035, our Community Strategic Plan,” said Mayor, Warren Waddell.
“In preparing the document, we have considered the feedback from over 10,000 residents, as we work toward a more prosperous and sustainable future for our residents. I strongly encourage you to share your thoughts on this important document to ensure we your voice is heard on the future of Hornsby Shire.”
Your Vision | Your Future 2035 is available for public comment until 21 April 2025. To share your feedback on the draft Community Strategic Plan – our vision, challenges and priorities – visit: https://yoursay.hornsby.nsw.gov.au/.
