Shaping Our Region - Stage 2 Engagement
This consultation has concluded.
Stage 2 Engagement concluded Friday 16th December. The Shaping our Region online forum and surveys are now closed.
The Project Management Team would like to thank everyone who participated in our workshops, listening posts, online forums, surveys and quick polls. We have had conversations with several hundred people from a wide range of sectors within the G21 community.
Over the next month we will be consolidating all the feedback received. This will form part of an engagement report and will provide an important input to the development of a draft Regional Growth Plan.
We encourage you to continue your interest in the project and monitor project development on the project website g21regionalgrowthplan.com.au. It is anticipated the draft Regional Growth Plan will be available for comment in April 2012.

Which scenario or combination of scenarios do you most prefer? Why?
This online discussion forum has concluded. You can still browse the site but the discussion area will no longer accept new comments or votes.
These scenarios describe possible futures for the G21 region at 500,000 people and beyond. Specifically, they explore ways in which the additional people could be accommodated in the region beyond the areas already identified to grow. The three scenarios are not options for growth, rather they have been created to encourage discussion about how you would like to see the region look and function in the long term.
Understanding your most preferred scenarios and why will help identfy prioirity directions and create a picture of the region in future.
