Your Region. Your Vision.
What’s your vision for 2043?
Together we’re creating a new community vision. Your Region, Your Vision is a chance for the community to create a 2043 vision for the Central Highlands, and a vision for each of the 13 communities in the region. As part of this we have are also creating a community profile for the region and each of the 13 communities.
To get there we’ve been asking you for your ideas and aspirations and what the challenges are. The new visions will be created and owned by the community and will inspire and guide individuals, families, businesses, community organisations and government over the next 20 years.
Where we are at…
We now have a Draft 2043 Community Vision – but it’s just a draft!
We also have the Draft regional profile and a profile for each of the 13 Communities!
We had the pleasure of travelling across the region from May to July to collect your ideas and an independent consultant reviewed more than 1,600 contributions from Central Highlanders to create the draft visions and community profiles.
Ideas spanned from recycling programs to railways, a mountain bike track to more support for small businesses, new housing to aged care services.
People love living in the Central Highlands but there are challenges and opportunities for the region and its towns over the next 20 years.
The Draft 2043 Community Vision and Community Profiles are now over to you Central Highlanders! Tell us what you like and what you want to make these even better!
Make sure you have your say by Monday 20 November by completing the Regional and/or any of the 13 Community surveys online or visiting your local library and council offices to provide feedback.

Next steps…
The visions and profiles are community developed, owned and led, so we need your help to make sure they reflect what community want!
Take a look at the draft vision and profile for the region and for your community and then complete the survey to help us make them even better.
All survey responses will go into the draw to win a $100 VISA gift card weekly from Monday 23 October to Monday 20 November.
Your entry will remain in the draw every week and a new winner will be announced Friday afternoons on council's Facebook page. For more information please check out the Survey's Terms & Conditions.
