Cardinia Shire Council is inviting the community to provide feedback on the Emerald Lake Precinct Strategic Plan 2020–2025 draft.
The draft Strategic Plan includes an overview of the strategic direction for the precinct, which will guide activities, maintenance, promotion and improvements for Emerald Lake Park and Nobelius Heritage Park.
The plan was developed with assistance from the community, who shared their aspirations for the precinct and the ways in which it could be improved for the future.
Community members now have an opportunity to provide feedback on what they like about the draft plan, or what they would like to see added or changed.
Cardinia Shire Mayor Cr Graeme Moore encouraged all visitors, surrounding residents, local businesses and community groups to provide feedback on the draft document, which will help shape the precinct’s future.
“Input from our community and stakeholders back in 2018 was crucial to the development of the strategic document, which represents a shared community vision for the future of this vital space.
“Now, we want everyone to review it and share their feedback, which will play an integral part in ensuring a vibrant precinct now and into the future,” Cr Moore said.
The draft Strategic Plan will be available for viewing and community feedback can be made online at www.cardinia.vic.gov.au/haveyoursay until 5pm, Sunday 10 November 2019.
Hardcopies of the Draft Strategic Plan are also available for viewing at the Emerald Museum, the Emerald Library and the Cardinia Shire Council Civic Centre in Officer.
Additionally, participants who contributed to the original consultation and who nominated to receive further updates will receive an email with a link to the online survey and the draft strategic plan.
