Consultation has concluded

Help us improve the accessibility of Council's services, facilities and activities.

In August 2014, the Disability Inclusion Act 2014 was passed, which means that all councils in New South Wales need to develop a Disability Access and Inclusion Plan. As the first step in this process, we're surveying and talking to people in our community about how we could improve the accessibility of Council's services, facilities and activities.

The information gathered will be used to develop an action plan that will guide us towards creating a more inclusive and accessible environment that supports people with disability to be included in the life of the City.

If you are someone with a disability or a carer, family member or friend of a person with disability, we are keen to hear your ideas. You can participate in the survey in one of the following ways:

The survey will be open from 14 April to 17 May 2015.
