We are seeking feedback from local businesses, community members and government and industry stakeholders on our draft Prosperous Economy Strategy (PES) and Economic Development Plan (EDP) 2025-29, which we have developed following Council’s endorsement of our new City Vision earlier this year.

The City Vision 2024–34 outlines our goals and objectives for the next decade. It represents our commitment to building a welcoming, liveable city, made by its people. The PES and EDP are a vital part of this long-term vision. Together, they will guide PAE’s role for the next four years, driving our aspiration to be a city with a thriving economy that enriches its local community.

Our draft EDP has been informed by our economic research and input from our local business community. It aligns with national, state, and regional efforts, helping us work with various partners and stakeholders. As the economy changes, our plan is flexible to take advantage of new opportunities and reduce risks.

You can provide your feedback on the draft PES and EDP by completing the feedback form below. What do you think of the draft document, does it cover what is important to the PAE community? Do you think the draft PES and EDP addresses opportunities and challenges in the PAE economy?

Engagement is open until Sunday 15 December 2024.
