Thank you for your feedback. Consultation is now closed. Stay tuned for more opportunities to have your say.



Our coast is a beautiful natural asset - highly valued by our local community and the many visitors it attracts. However, it is facing a range of pressures and it's clear we need to take proactive steps to prepare our coastal communities for the future.

To start the conversation with our community, we have prepared a Discussion Paper that provides information about some of the challenges and how we might respond. We're keen to know if you think we have captured the important issues and if there is anything else that you think we need to consider when we prepare the Draft Coastal Strategy.

The Discussion Paper puts forward 15 potential actions for consideration, which have been summarised here. They have been grouped into the following themes:

  • Environment and Landscape.
  • Population Pressures and Development.
  • Development Infrastructure and Management.
  • Community and Economy.

We know how important this conversation is to have with our community, so we are offering multiple ways to have your say:

  • Pop-ups - see details of the first two under 'Events' on the right.
  • Discussion Forums, starting with the one below.
  • Ideas Board, click on 'Ideas' below.
  • Written Submissions, click on 'Survey' below.

    Share your feedback on the Coastal Strategy Discussion Paper!

    We want to hear your thoughts on the Coastal Strategy Discussion Paper, which proposes potential actions on how Council can best respond to the challenges in our coastal areas. The Discussion Paper sets out a range of actions for the community to consider.

    While we are keen to hear your thoughts on the actions as a whole, we are seeking feedback on specific actions that propose significant changes to planning regulations in our coastal areas.

    Consultation closes on Tuesday 14 February 2023.
