Our Inner West 2036 - CSP
What is the Community Strategic Plan (CSP)?
It identifies the community's vision for the future, long term goals, strategies to get there and how to measure progress towards that vision. It guides all of Council's plans, policies and budgets.
How was the CSP developed?
Our Inner West 2036 has been shaped by a large and diverse range of people across all age groups, geographic areas, cultures and languages. The input from over 7,000 people over 18 months has determined the vision and the strategic direction of the Plan. Read the Engagement Outcomes Report for more information.
