Engagement activities 2024-2025

One of Central Coast Council's core responsibilities is to create an ongoing dialogue with our community, and engage on a range of Council projects, initiatives, policies, strategies and plans to ensure a balanced and collaborative decision-making process between the community and Council is achieved. We do this in line with our Engagement Framework and Community Participation Plan.

We have made available this annual Engagement Plan that forecasts community engagement activities so you can understand ahead of time what Council will engage on and when.
