Thank-you for helping shape the future of the Western Downs

Our draft Corporate Plan 2026-2031 outlines Council's goals to make our region an even better place to live, work, and play.

A strong Corporate Plan is our foundation for transparent decision making, effective budget management, and delivering impactful projects that benefit the whole region.

The plan guides our objectives under four strategic priorities:

  • Diverse Thriving Economy
  • Vibrant Connected Community
  • Balanced Prosperous Lifestyle
  • Sustainable Effective Council

These are the four pillars that govern our commitment to people, progress, performance and place.

From 8 December 2025 to 2 January 2026, we invited residents to view the draft plan and share feedback by completing the survey below to help ensure our vision reflected the needs and aspirations of our community.

Council is currently reviewing these findings to inform the final Western Downs Regional Council Corporate Plan 2026-31.
