HAVE YOUR SAY... ON HOW YOU HAVE YOUR SAY

Residents are being asked to tell Council how they would like to contribute on decisions made in the Kempsey Shire.

As our community evolves so too does the way in which Kempsey Shire Council engages with residents.

Included in the draft strategy is a Community Participation Plan with its aim being an easy-to-use guide for residents to know when and how they can participate in decisions.

“This document explains how the commitments outlined in the overarching strategy will be delivered.”
