Advocacy themes and priorities 2025-29
Future-focused advocacy
Our community is growing fast. Home to 253,192 residents in 2024, our population is expected to increase almost 60% to 402,191 by 2041.
To keep up with this rapid population growth, we need support from both the State and Federal government.
It is essential we keep the needs of our growing community in mind in all future strategic planning activities, while actively campaigning for the State and Federal government to do the same.
Our key priorities
We rely on all levels of government to help provide the infrastructure and services our community needs. We advocate to the government to fund these priorities.
We are seeking State and Federal government co-investment in 12 key initiatives across five themes:
- housing
- community services and infrastructure
- public transport
- roads
- environmental sustainability.
Investment in these areas will create and enhance conditions for economic growth, liveability, and sustainability, benefiting our rapidly expanding and diverse population.
