Towards 2050 Community Strategic Plan Survey
Help shape the future of the Lithgow LGA!
Lithgow’s current community vision was adopted by the Council in 2006. With a growing diverse community and significant investment and opportunity coming to the Seven Valleys, this vision is due for a refresh to make sure it reflects what is important to the community.
The purpose of this survey is to understand your vision for the Lithgow Local Government Area and our Seven Valleys, your priorities for the future, and your feedback on key projects and opportunities.
Your feedback will shape the Community Strategic plan and ensure that it reflects long-term community needs and aspirations to help the Lithgow LGA and our Seven Valleys grow and thrive over the coming decades.
