A Community Plan for a Sustainable Future

Our Community Plan for a Sustainable Future 2024-2030 is the end result of a three year community project. It represents our community’s vision and expectations for the future. It is also a powerful call to action for ongoing engagement between the community, Shoalhaven City Council and other levels of government when important decisions are being made the impact on our five villages. 

After the 2019-2020 Black Summer bushfires, the Red Head Villages Association received funding from the Shoalhaven City Council and the Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal to develop a this Community Plan.

The Red Head Villages Association engaged Locale Consultants to lead a community consultation process of workshops and a survey. The results of information gathered from 180 workshop participants and 406 survey respondents was used by a resident’s working group to develop a “Character Statement” and an Action Plan covering the six themes (climate change, Conjola National Park, community social interaction, village amenity, connectivity of villages and delivery of services, and Planning and the Built Environment.
