In 2016 more than 1,200 community members, representing a broad range of backgrounds, participated in a variety of surveys, face-to-face engagements and online forums to create the Community Plan 2025. This consultation provided valuable insights into what residents value and what is needed to make Bayside a better place. It was used to inform and prioritise the development of this Council Plan.
