This strategy is about managing the growth of our city by working together with the community, industry and other levels of government to protect and enhance our environment and its liveability for current and future generations.
The Sustainability Strategy outlines new sustainability initiatives (with some already in action) to build capacity within the community and to bring awareness, shared stories and practical knowledge to our residents. It also outlines targets to be delivered by 2021.
