Eurobodalla Council's general manager, Mark Ferguson, and finance director, Stephanie Speedy, are taking our four-year action plan on the road, presenting it at community briefings next week in Batemans Bay, Moruya and Narooma.
Derived from the Community Strategic Plan (CSP) – Towards 2042, the Draft Delivery Program 2025-2029 and Draft Operational Plan 2025-2026 distil our 20-year strategy for the shire into a four-year action plan. And just like the CSP, we're seeking residents' feedback to fine-tune the drafts.
"Think of these documents as our to-do list," Mr Ferguson said.
"We encourage residents to come along to the briefings and help us ensure we've got your priorities right."
The briefings will cover the rates for services next financial year as well as the upcoming budget to show how Council plans on allocating its resources to deliver essential services and projects.
"We want to give the community a clear picture of what your rates pay for," Ms Speedy said.
Big infrastructure projects like the Batemans Bay coastal protection works, the southern dam project at Bodalla, and the emergency services precinct will also be explained.
Residents are invited to attend one of the following community briefing sessions:
- Moruya Library: Tuesday 13 May, 5pm to 6pm
- Narooma Library: Wednesday 14 May, 5pm to 6pm
- Batemans Bay Library: Thursday 15 May, 5pm to 6pm
Hard copies of the two draft documents are available for viewing at Council's customer service office in Moruya, the Batemans Bay, Moruya, and Narooma libraries, and on Council's website.
