- Help Shape Our Priorities
Help us shape our priorities for the 2026-2027 financial year.
Planning is starting for the 2026-2027 annual plan and budget and we want to hear from the community at the very beginning of the process.
To help us understand what matters most to you, share with us the actions and services you think deliver the most value to best meet the needs of our community.
We also welcome formal submissions for Council to consider.
The 2026-2027 annual plan and budget are linked to our Council and Health and Wellbeing Plan 2025-2029 which represents our promise to the Knox community and delivers on your aspirations and needs. This early engagement gives you the opportunity to help shape priorities from the start.
Share your feedback by the 24 August 2025 to help us plan what we do in the year ahead.
You can have your say online or come chat to the team at one of our pop ups:
