Adopted June 2024
A Plan to look after nature, build stronger communities, design better developments, and keep the North East Coast wonderfully wild.
The Township Plans aim to define a coherent character for George Town’s coastal townships and rural areas. They seek to ensure that each community can move forward sustainably and sensitively through coherent objectives and actions.
Good strategic planning helps a council set future directions and balance the needs and aspirations of communities within the constraint of available resources. It also ensures that a council can distribute the costs related to planned services and community infrastructure fairly over time.
The Township Plans are a non-statutory plans that aims to understand each places (coastal townships and rural areas) key features, unique qualities, and subtle differences, and define a delivery plan for community infrastructure. Community infrastructure is defined as any park, reserve, street, trail, or facility managed by George Town Council.
