Bushfield-Woodford Strategic Framework Plan - Final Draft

Consultation Open
Closes:

Have your say on the final Draft Bushfield-Woodford Strategic Framework Plan. 

The Strategic Framework Plan aims to provide a long term vision and framework to guide land use and development and manage the future growth of Bushfield and Woodford for up to 20 years.

The Draft Plan has been informed by the community through an online survey, community drop-in session and feedback on earlier drafts of the Plan. We have also engaged directly with 11 stakeholder groups including Woodford Primary School, the Country Fire Authority, Telstra and Wannon Water. 

We have finalised the Draft Plan considering community feedback, the results of bushfire and onsite wastewater management studies and new State Government guidelines on how the boundaries of regional towns should be managed. 

The Draft Plan is now available for final review and comment. You can view and download a copy online Draft Bushfield-Woodford Strategic Framework Plan   A hard copy can also be viewed at the Civic Centre, 25 Liebig Street Warrnambool.
