About Future Wellington
Wellington Shire Council is in the process of reviewing our Community Vision and long-term plans that guide the direction and priorities of our community. Our current Community Vision 2031, which was initially created in 2008 and has been regularly reviewed, reflects what our community envisions for the future of Wellington Shire. We have been working towards this vision alongside our Council Plan 2021-2025. Now, we want to ensure this vision aligns with the evolving goals and priorities of our community. You can view the current plans below:
