Access and inclusion for our community a top priority for Council

Understanding the community’s concerns and priorities when it comes to access and inclusion is a key focus for Council which was highlighted following the adoption of the Livingstone Access and Inclusion Consultation Report.Acting Mayor Nigel Hutton said this consultation was conducted across Livingstone and showed overwhelming results that residents are enthusiastic to be involved or to have community experts (those with lived experience) involved in the early stages of planning for projects, activities and programmes.“The report contains recommendations for improving access and inclusion across the Livingstone Shire and details actions Council, local businesses and the community can take to support an equitable community now and into the future,” Cr Hutton said.“The report will also inform the whole of community plan, Livingstone 2050: Shaping Our Tomorrow.“In terms of physical accessibility, suitable footpaths were the priority for residents particularly in high density suburbs close to the Yeppoon CBD.
