COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT

 

Community Development in Local Government promotes partnerships between Council, Community Groups, funding bodies and organisations to develop projects, activities or events which enhance and strengthen community life. It aims to promote an overall planned approach so that community resources are shared and used in the best way.                                                                                                                    
Community Development projects can extend across a whole range of community services such as Community Arts & Culture, Art Gallery, Public Museum, Local History and Heritage, Local Art, Touring Shows, Townscape, Park and Playgrounds, Disability Support and Access, Recreation, Family and Children, Young People & Seniors.

Community Development Officers can assist community groups and individuals to access funding and local resources and to liaise with Council to develop their projects.
