Together we can build a connected, active and inclusive community that celebrates creativity and nurtures a healthy, vibrant environment
The plan was prepared by Council in collaboration with and on behalf of the North Sydney community. While Council serves as its custodian, the plan itself belongs to the community and addresses the following questions:
Where are we now?
Where do we want to be in 10 years’ time?
How will we get there?
How will we know we have arrived?
Over the past year, Council has undertaken research and consulted broadly to identify key challenges and opportunities and determine the main priorities and aspirations of the people who work and live in North Sydney.
This research was used to develop a suite of eight Informing Strategies which articulate the outcomes wanted and needed by our community, together with strategic directions, objectives and specific actions for delivery.
These eight Informing Strategies have been combined to create the 2025-35 Community Strategic Plan, which outlines how we will work together to build:
a healthy environment with thriving ecosystems and strong climate resilience
a connected and socially inclusive community where everyone is valued
an active community with space for everyone to exercise and enjoy the outdoors
a connected LGA where safe, active, and sustainable travel is preferred
a thriving and resilient local economy
a vibrant LGA where culture and creativity is enjoyed by all
housing that meets the needs of a growing population
an effective, accountable, and sustainable Council that serves the community
When the plan refers to ‘we’, it refers to the collective North Sydney community including residents, workers, businesses, Council, government agencies and other stakeholders. Responsibility for delivery of this plan rests with us all.
