In the future, more people will be living in our suburbs, let's have a conversation about the housing and transport needs of our community.

Our community is growing and changing. More people than ever before are choosing to call our City home, and the types of housing people need is evolving. Our current housing options can’t keep up with demand.

As our community grows, we face important decisions about how and where we live, how we move around our neighbourhoods, and how we care for our environment. Planning now will shape the future of our City.

If we want our neighbourhoods to evolve in ways that reflect our values and meet our needs, we need to plan ahead, together. By planning now, we can support liveable and more connected neighbourhoods where all people can thrive.

Learn more about this project and housing and transport statistics and trends.

We invite you to join the conversation and help Council prepare Housing Diversity and Integrated Transport Strategies that will underpin a City Masterplan.

Let’s talk about:

• What you love about your local area
• Types of housing and infrastructure that can meet our community’s changing needs
• How we make our city a great place for our current and future community

During the Towards 2050 Community Conversation, we are also holding workshops with High Schools and Council's Disability Access and Inclusion Group – plus gathering feedback at local events and high use community facilities.
