Previous engagement

Are you interested in how Willoughby City Council plans to deliver quality services, projects, and infrastructure for our community over the next four years and how they’ll be funded?

We want to hear from you!

The following documents are now on exhibition, and your feedback is an important part of the process: 

• Draft Delivery Program 2025-29 and Operational Plan 2025/26 translates the priorities and aspirations outlined in our Community Strategic Plan: Our Future Willoughby 2036 into clear actions. It identifies priority projects, programs, and measurable targets to guide Council’s work over the next four years.

• Draft Annual Fees and Charges 2025/26 outlines changes to Council’s fees and charges for the upcoming financial year. 

Together, these plans show how Council will meet the evolving needs of our growing and diverse community.
