Local Area Planning 2007
The Moriac Key Priorities report stemmed from discussions that took place at the Local Area Planning sessions in November. The report was compiled by community members who volunteered their time to work with Council staff, on both the report and presenting these ideas to Council at a Council Briefing.
The key topics for discussion are listed below, with the full report available from http://eforum.surfcoastdirectories.com/

Local Area Planning to commence November 2007
A series of two local area planning sessions are scheduled to take place in Moriac in November. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to future planning in Moriac, and a great chance to meet with other community members to determine opportunities for positive change and celebration of achievements.
The participants in the first session will be randomly selected community members, who were sent invitations during October. This process of random selection was chosen to ensure a broad and fair representation of community ideas, and also to encourage participation from community members who may not usually come to such community events. This session will be held on Thursday 1 November.
The second session is open to the wider Moriac community, including permanent and non-permanent residents. Everyone is welcome to come along, to meet with other community members and chat about local issues. Details are as follows:
When: Thursday 22 November, 7pm-9:30pm
Where: Moriac Community Centre, Newling Reserve
Refreshments will be provided. Please RSVP to Rochelle Harding on 5261 0540 or localareaplans@surfcoast.vic.gov.au
The overall aim of the two sessions will be to develop a series of recommendations which outline community priorities in Anglesea for 2008 and beyond. The group’s recommendations will be presented to Council on 11 December 2007. Feedback from this presentation will be sent to participants and made available to the wider community.
