Greater Shepparton's direction for the next four years is shaped by the Council Plan 2025-2029, and work is already underway to progress the actions Council has committed to deliver during this time.
The Council Plan sets a clear roadmap and strategic direction for the region, shaped directly by extensive community feedback and consultation with a dedicated Community Panel.
The document sets priorities across five themes: economy, infrastructure, liveability, environment and how Council works with and for the community, ensuring investment and decision‑making reflect what matters most to the community. It also sets out how progress will be measured, so residents can see what's being delivered and how Council is tracking.
Key areas of focus include supporting a strong local economy and local jobs, investing in smarter infrastructure, including roads and community facilities, improving liveability through safer, more connected neighbourhoods, protecting the natural environment for future generations, and ensuring transparent, responsible leadership and financial sustainability.
To ensure the community is brought along on the journey, a dedicated Council Plan webpage has been developed on Council's website. This page outlines how the Council Plan works and provides further information on the five strategic themes and the key actions and community benefits that support each of these pillars.
