Our 2022–23 Annual Report is now ready for you to read.

Our Boroondara Community Plan 2021–31 is our key strategic document, translating your priorities and aspirations into a practical plan for Council and staff to bring to life. Each year, our Annual Report shares the progress we’ve made against the plan’s 7 priority themes, as well as looking ahead at how we’ll continue to deliver on what’s most important to you.

Highlights within the report from the past year include:

  • the stage 1 opening of our new Canterbury Community Precinct
  • the redevelopment of the Freeway Golf Course in Balwyn North
  • our work to finalise and begin implementing the Gardiners Creek (Kooyongkoot) Master Plan.

We’re also pleased to share Climate Action Plan updates, and details of our collaboration with Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung Elders to deliver the year 1 actions of our Boroondara Reconciliation Strategy.
