Strategic plans in place

Mohya Davies, Mayor South Gippsland Shire Council said, "This Discussion Paper is the first step of updating the 2008 Foster Structure Plan, one of council's oldest structure plans, to reflect the current and future needs of the Foster community."

"As our towns continue to grow, it is important that we have strategic plans in place. Sustainable growth is one of our Council Plan objectives, and it is great to see this sort of work coming through to support that objective." Mayor Davies said.
