What is included in the plan
(Back to top)AT PARRAMATTA: Local Heart, Global Outlook
Our Community Strategic Plan is built around this shared vision and five strategic pillars, developed through extensive consultation with our community:
- We all belong - A diverse, creative, inclusive and inspiring City.
- We put people first - An equitable and socially connected City.
- We are an economic powerhouse - A prosperous, productive and ambitious City.
- We nurture our environment - A regenerative and resilient City.
- We are future focused - A leading and forward-thinking City.
To inform the development of this plan, Council has drawn on the views of more than 4,472 people across community engagement efforts undertaken in 2023–2024.
In 2024, Council ran a broad community campaign inviting feedback that would inform the development of this plan. The campaign had an audience of 138,773 and more than 1,600 community members participated in activities including the City of Parramatta’s first 100 Forum.
Between May and June 2025, Council exhibited its refreshed Integrated Planning & Reporting documents, including the draft Community Strategic Plan 2025–2050. The campaign featured six ward-based pop-ups engaging 370 people and received 89 online and email submissions.
This feedback, along with an extensive body of community engagement results from 2023–2024 on a variety of strategic projects, has underpinned the development of the Community Strategic Plan 2025–2050.
