Welcome and thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback.
This survey will take about 5-10 minutes to complete. When you submit this form, it will not collect your details like name and address unless you provide them yourself.
All questions are optional. We encourage you to answer as many questions as you can, based on your interests and experience.
You do not need to have read the entire draft Strategy and Action Plan Matrix to complete this survey. Please answer based on what you have seen so far or your general expectations.
We want to be upfront about how your feedback will be used.
Your input will help shape the focus, priorities and directionof the draft Environment and Sustainability Strategy. However, some matters sit outside the scope of this Strategy or outside Council’s authority andcan’t be changed through this community engagement process.
Your feedback can influence:
What Council focuses on most, and where effort or funding is directed
Which actions are included, changed or removed from the Strategy and Action Plan Matrix
Ideas for projects, programs, collaborations or incentives
New environmental priorities not currently included
Wording, tone and accessibility of the Strategy
How Council reports back to the community on progress
Your feedback can’t influence:
Projects or activities outside the scope of this Strategyeg planning scheme amendments
Major energy project approvals (including offshore wind, seismic testing or gas exploration) — Council can advocate, but is not the decision-maker
Places not owned or managed by Moyne Shire Council (e.g. Tower Hill, Budj Bim National Park, Deen Maar)
Roads and roadsides not under Council authority (e.g. Princes Highway and other arterial roads managed by VicRoads)
Fees and charges already adopted by Council, such as current transfer station fees
