In response to community interest and feedback, Council is continuing to work alongside the Daisy Hill community to support them in creating their very own community plan.
In November 2022 residents came together to share their ideas to make Daisy Hill an even better place to live.
Daisy Hill community leaders are now reaching out to invite other residents and community groups to also share their thoughts and ideas.
Central Goldfields Shire Paddys Ranges Ward Cr Chris Meddows-Taylor said community plans are an important tool for supporting advocacy and seeking funding and resources to support community goals and aspirations.
“But first we must understand what the community’s shared vision is – what do they identify as their strengths and what are their future priorities.
“The Daisy Hill Community Plan is for the community; however delivery of the plan will be the shared responsibility of community members, Council, other government, business and key stakeholder groups and organisations.
“The Daisy Hill Centre Committee is a terrific group to work with and at a recent community event at the Centre, we already made a great start identifying some key priorities for the community. It will be really exciting to work together with the Committee and the community to take that work forward and hear what makes Daisy Hill a great place to live and how we can make it an even better place to be in the future.”
President of the Daisy Hill Community Centre Bill Robinson said it was an important opportunity for our local residents to have their say and to share challenges, ideas and suggestions.
“I encourage our community to get involved.”
