Community Engagement
The City of Canterbury Bankstown recently engaged Place Design Group as lead engagement consultant for the development of their local strategic planning statement, as part of the NSW Government’s new planning and reporting framework for Councils.
As the largest local government area by population in New South Wales, and home to one of the most culturally and linguistically diverse communities in Western Sydney, there is a need for strong, wide-reaching and inclusive engagement (both internally and externally) to deliver the insights required for the creation of a local strategic planning statement that will stand Council in good stead in the years to come.
With a multidisciplinary team of engagement and communications specialists, some of the best planning minds in Australia, and graphic communication artists, planning speak and government processes are demystified, creating great outcomes for the client and the community. The project will also involve leading discussions internally with technical experts, to distil and refine insights for the purposes of the LSPS and broader community and key stakeholder engagement.
