Have your say - second community survey

The final stage of the community engagement project is a second community survey.

Based on what we have heard so far, this survey seeks to refine the focus of future development controls. Council appreciates the rich and extensive feedback that was received from the community in the first two stages of engagement - 631 responses to the first survey and approximately 130 people participating in the face-to-face engagement activities in March 2024.

To date, we have heard that the community want future planning controls to:

• Focus on areas with significant heritage values.
• Not preclude change but rather respond to different site and area-based constraints and opportunities across Berry.
• Respond to infrastructure needs, especially parking, roads, pedestrian movement and drainage.
• Ensure landscaping and vegetation is a key consideration in every development.
• Continue to value and place emphasis on views and the rural landscape.
