Wyndham council is opening its doors to residents who are interested in voicing their opinion about the city’s current financial state.
The Budget Forum will be hosted at the Wyndham Civic Centre from 9.30-11am on Saturday, August 16.
The purpose of the forum is to provide attendees with an overview of council’s current financial position, how community feedback is incorporated into the final budget and an opportunity to reflect on the process.
Council chief executive Stephen Wall will be in attendance and provide guests an overview of the municipality’s current financial position.
Mr Wall will also address the challenges Wyndham faces and the legislative requirements guiding community engagement in the budget process.
The session includes an open question and answer session with councillors and council staff, followed by discussion on future opportunities for budget engagement.
The feedback from the sessions will help council inform its processes and community engagement methods going forward.
Members of the community are encouraged to register and attend this event to share their insights and thoughts.
This is an opportunity for residents to understand how a budget is developed and to have a say in shaping the future of the city.
Registration is essential, as places are limited.
To secure a place residents are encouraged to register before 5pm on Monday, August 11 via The Loop.
