City of Boroondara proposed budget 2020-2021

Lighter Footprints welcomes the opportunity to comment on the City of Boroondara’s Proposed Budget for 2020-2021. While these consultations are a requirement under the legislation, we ask that the Council move beyond mere compliance to put in place a consultative process that enables more meaningful community involvement. Such things as starting consultations much earlier in the budget negotiations and greater availability of relevant information would ensure a more meaningful prospect for the community to influence the results of these deliberations.
