A council spokesman said to ensure that the council’s plans described the community’s vision, aspirations and priorities as outlined in the scorecard results, community members were invited to participate in a series of workshops being held throughout the region next month.
“Cassowary Coast 2024 FUTYR community workshops will share feedback on current service levels from the scorecard that will guide (the) council’s local priorities,” he said.
