Our local government area includes a variety of housing types, densities, locations and price points. In this draft budget and Operational Delivery Plan we will continue to create a range of opportunities that have social, economic and environmental benefits for our region.

The budget and associated plans highlight investment in areas that will assist with long term traffic flow while also developing master plans that respond to the needs of the city, towns and villages within our region.
