Community engagement

Community engagement is an essential part of how we plan, deliver and improve services across the city.

How do we engage with the community?

• Inform: We share clear and timely information to help people understand what is happening and why.
  Consult: We ask for feedback when community input can help shape decisions.
  Participate: We work together with stakeholders to find solutions for complex or high-impact projects.

Our Community Engagement Framework

We have a clear plan for how we connect with our community. Our Community Engagement Framework outlines how we listen, inform and respond to community needs, helping ensure your input leads to meaningful outcomes. To learn more, read the framework(PDF, 6MB)

Working together for positive change

In 2024, we heard from over 20,000 people through surveys and events. We continue to grow and improve how we engage with the community, and we invite you to be part of it.
