IMAGINE Vincent, the City of Vincent’s largest community engagement project to date, has garnered some quirky ideas so far, and organisers are keen to hear more.
The City has received about 650 ideas from more than 700 people since the project was launched in June.
Feedback will be used to inform and develop the City’s Strategic Community Plan 2018-2028, which will set the long-term direction and focus for the council’s planning, budget and resource allocation process.
