Community Engagement Framework Bayside City Council has released its Community Engagement Framework for feedback and public comment. Background Bayside has listened to what the community expects and wants from Council and sees this new approach as a step towards meeting those expectations. Council also recognises that improvements can be made and is seeking feedback and will also be actively approaching interested and involved members of the community. You can be involved in shaping the way Council and the community talk with each other, and how information is obtained and acted upon by registering to get involved in a focus group using the online enquiry form, by giving us online feedback, or to chat to us, submit your details using the online enquiry form and we’ll contact you to discuss your thoughts. Please help – let us know how Council and the community can work together to make Bayside a better place. Documentation

Update on Draft Open Space and Sportsground Strategies In February 2009, Council withdrew its draft Open Space and Sportsground strategies from public comment. Having heard a strong community desire for a more integrated approach to meeting the needs of many different open space users, Council is now committed to presenting a clearer strategic direction for community consultation. Background Council needs to develop a new open space strategy to meet the many different and changing community needs of how open space is used. Once Council agrees on the process for developing a new integrated strategy, this will be communicated to stakeholders, organisations and residents who were involved in developing the now withdrawn drafts, and those who made a submission or enquiry, completed a survey and/or registered their details at the Draft Sportsground Strategy community information sessions. If you would like your contact details to be included on this database, email npaton@bayside.vic.gov.au. This will ensure you receive any future correspondence regarding the new integrated Open Space Strategy. On progressing the development of this new strategy, the feedback, submissions and surveys received through consultation on the now withdrawn draft strategies will be considered to guide future proposals on how all open space is provided in the future to meet community needs.
