Feedback on the council's draft annual plan

Community Development Worker from Bishopdale Community Trust

The COVID-19 crisis has impacted the council's finances and now is the opportunity for you to give feedback on the council's new draft budget for 2020-21.

Of particular interest is the council's consideration of a one-off boost of 5 per cent ($360,000) to the Strengthening Communities Fund in 2020/21 to acknowledge the challenges faced by community organisations as a result of the COVID-19 crisis and Level 4 lockdown.

If you value your community organisations, then please let the council know! 👍
